Of course but I couldn't let it slip by, seriously the fishing reports will let you know where they are hitting. Searching http://www.somdnews.com for "drum" several articles appeared including one that says "The colors seem only to be important to the fishermen right now. Some bigger rockfish were hitting surface poppers inside the outflow of the Power Plant. A few nice red drum are cruising our waters too, but those catches have been relatively rare and sporadic."Bozznc said:

We surprised ourselves and caught one just like that last year off the beach by Oregon Inlet. It pulled the rod holder right down and the pole was in the surf before my speedy little wifey caught up to it. As far as catching the Reds around the middle bay area, I've never hooked one and don't know if they are here. I think they like the surf and sand bars. Black drum are more common here and get huge.Bozznc said:

Here is a pair we got a few years ago, puppy drum flood the bay and rivers here on hot years. Puppy drum are what we call little red drum. Watch down Point lookout as DNR hands out MANY tickets for people thinking they are hardhead and keeping 9" puppies.
They are a hard fighting head thumping good time to catch. Black Drum come up first week of june to spawn and then are gone, reds are here during the summer. They are very good table fair

I do not target them but have caught them many ways.desertrat said:
In creeks beetle spinning for perch, On oyster bars bottom fishing while using spinner hooks. And have hooked them trolling with spoons and eels.
The big ones are a heck of a good time on light tackle, little ones are good table fair.
Ones in pic were 32 and 37 inches if I remember right
