Tasted like veal cutlet.

Foul hooking a game fish?

The best part about big black drum, is when you clean them, you can save all the worms in the meat for crappie fishing!

Idk where people come up with these worm rumors but all the drum we’ve cleaned we’ve had 2 out of over 300 with worms,good enough for me.

Small black drum say up to about 9 pounds are good eating. The big one the best way to cook them is on a cedar slab then throw away the fish and eat the slab. I have fished them a lot at St Augustine and Mayport inlets and enjoy their bull dog fights but those large breeders need to be released. BTW there is no off season for Specks in Florida just sometimes of the year better then others. Many large drum do have worms in the flesh normally back toward the tail section. They are white in color and can be hard to see. Like the fish they can be ate if you so desire but they will not get into the cedar plank while cooking. Don
