Fishing Report from 5/23 - 5-25
I've never fished much over the Holiday weekend, but this year I was able to get away from work. Spent Friday night fishing with friends, Sunday night fishing with Family. I was fishing near the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay with clams and crabs. We caught lots of skates, rays, and sharks...and seven of these other critters in the 70 to 80# range

Is that a black drum? Nice catch!

That definately looks like something of the drum family like we catch down in the Gulf. The ones that are a little smaller will be better eating, but if cut out all the red and blacken them, they will be much better than what you East coasters usually catch and eat.

Black Drum is correct. We fished hard for a red, but only a few were caught around us. I'm on a quest now to get my red over 50".

You come down to the south and I'll show you a 50"+ red. Not good eating, but a pretty fun catch even on heavy tackle. One of my most fun trips was when I caught a 36#er on 15lb test line; talk about nerve racking!
