Drum bite is on!!

Friday night I weighed 2 Drum for brothers Joe and Marc Miranda. They caught their fish @ Tussey's on clams w/their heaviest coming in @ 70.2 lbs and two others that were in the 60-65 lb range.





We also had another boat in the marina who gave us his report (also from Tussey's) that he had 7 drum from Friday afternoon and brought one home for the table.

Now if we can only get the weather to work for us!!!! The wind picked up again this morning

We also had most of our boats coming back last night w/drum after we closed. Don't know sizes or any details on the report since I was just finishing up dinner, but do know they all spent some time @ the cleaning tables.

Are you guys still heading out today, if so, sounds like you'll have a good chance @ some nice size drum for your Dad.

Thanks for the report Chuck, good to know guys are getting on the drum.

Yeah Jersey, looking forward to a report. Remind Satan's Chariot to zoom his camera in, he's not used to being so close to the water.

You left that healthy, well planned, gourmet lunch in the car!!! That sucks!

Oh well, guess you had to resort to some clams on the half shell.

Can't wait to hear the report, looked like the wind calmed down at least for a little bit for you guys.
