When I was a kid we ate a lot of black drum, even big ones, and I always enjoyed them. I don't keep them any more, but I do enjoy throwing a fly at them when they are up on the flats. I used to catch a lot of them on the flats around Prien Lk . One summer the flat in the middle of the PPG turnaround was covered with them all summer long, I caught many on fly that year, had them pull the boat around, got rods broken by them and all in all had a good time. This one was from New Years weekend, weighed about 38 pounds, caught on fly in 2 feet of water. He ran a lot faster, farther and stronger than most drum I've caught.
