BLACK DRUM RULE



3-3-2011--We started today trying to catch speckled trout on mid-bay reefs since the wind is down. After three hours of no bites we gave that up and went for reds and black drum. My 4 fishermen limited with 20 black drum in addition to 3 reds. The average size of the drum was much larger than normal.

I don't know where all the sting rays are coming from. We caught several today. Monday, was even worse when my 2 fishermen caught 10 to 12 sting rays along with limits of black drum. It seems that everywhere we find black drum and reds the sting rays are right there with them. If the hook is showing in the sting ray's mouth I can get it out with a hard head flipper but if the hook is buried I just cut the line.

The best bite this last week has been after 11 AM.
