Where can I buy croaker?
 

Where can I get live croaker on Saturday morning? I'm gonna be headin south through lake charles to Holly beach. Would like to not go off path too far if I don't have to. Thanks!

Have to cast net for them

Hit some canals off the side on the way

Dang really? Okay thanks, better go invest in one I guess. Can't believe nobody sells it around here

Cajun Fastmart in Carlyss has cast nets and you'll be driving right by there.

i think fastmart still has the lead nets too. might be wrong. youll easily be able to cast net for them in the canals.

Can't i just use a Walmart cast net? I've thrown some friends nets, so I know how to do it but don't know much about it. I've never really fished with bait so this is all new to me. I can't get a hold of any bait shops really. Either the phone numbers are old or they don't answer. Few that I did talk to don't sell croaker.

Can y'all elaborate on throwing in canals? Anything I should look for? Depth of water? Clarity? Size of canal?

Look for the ripples while your driving down 27

Think I may go this weekend also but I prefer constance beach ... how ever u spell it good crabbing hole right on the beach that comes outta the marsh that cuts thru to the gulf

Oh and don't cast net in the reserve it's outlawed except in a boat

May be able to catch some Croker off the beach also depending on the surf... just gotta choke up on your net a lil...
