REDFISH AND BIG BLACK DRUM



3-20-2013-- The two very good fishermen today booked me because they wanted to experience catching big black drum.  When I saw that there would be a strong north wind today, I asked if they would like to wade for redfish first and then go for the drum.  They agreed and we set out in 35-40 mph winds.  I know they were dubious, because there were zero other boat trailers in the parking lot.  We got in the water at 7:30 and had their 2 limits of redfish on white gulp jerk shad by 8:00 am.  They went on to release some more before we left to get the big drum at 9:00 am.  Put the boat on the trailer and went to the launch at Ingleside after a stop for tacos.  They tugged and pulled in 4 black drum up to 40" before the bite stopped.After that it was one small shark, some hardheads, and so many gaftop catfish we finally gave up.
