Water temperatures are warming up

The water temperature in the Bay has finally started to warm up. We have reports of 62 degree water. The Drum fishing has really turned on and the following were two noteworthy reports I received:

Joe Pritchard on the “Big Game” went out on Wednesday last week and brought 8 Drum to the boat. They were all in the 30-35 lb. class….just right for table fare. On Saturday, he had 9 catches with one weighing in at 68 lbs.

The Captain of the Charter Boat “Slammer” also went out Saturday and he too had a great evening. He had 15 fish with one weighing 80 lbs.

The time is now to start hitting these Drum fish.
