    Default All Aboard!!!


    I think this is #6 for the Freshwater Drum and both from this stretch of creek have been good size. When this particular one hit, my net was about 50 yards downstream, and after catching a glimpse of him, I decided to work him down that way which worked out good. The larger ones can be a real handful and a lot of fun on ultra light gear. Also caught four Smallies. Right before leaving I hit a good one that shot out of the water like a cruise missile four foot from the surface and must have traveled downstreamName:  DSC02675.jpg

    Another fine outing! Bet that drum did give you a battle !
    I’ll be headed out tomorrow to explore a new area at the reservoir my fishing buddy and I fish . I hope to find a feeder creek worthy of a few casts .

    Never seen or heard of a Drum until joining CDC. Are they good eating? Thanks for posting, moonrunner!

    LVS,
    Google this: Bass Pro Shops 6 reasons to fish for freshwater drum
    Good article on these cool fish. They hit lures as good as other fish and hang on when you tie into a good size one. Thanks.

    Smallies are beyond the pale fun and are magicians at a water launch and return of your lure. They sure get the heart pumping! Good outing for you!
