Drum

Monday I decided to go back to the spot where I caught the flounder last week. This time I arrived about an hour before low tide. I had caught some small menhaden where I launch the boat so I decided to use those. I rigged them on a small jighead.

My first cast and I was hooked up. But it was obvious it was no flounder, I was loosing line quick! I didn't want to tighten the drag with the fish running so hard so I started the boat and chased him down. Landed a 28 inch drum which I released. I proceeded to catch 5 more all from 27 1/2 inch to 29 inches long.

I couldn't get to the flounder for all the drum! Nice problem to have.
