My First Chesapeake Black Drum

Type: Chesapeake
Region: Eastern
Location: Eastern Chesapeake Bay

This Black Drum was caught while jigging for White Perch and Rock Fish in 15' of water. It was caught on 1/2 oz Stingsilver metal jig. 48.5" length. I guessed weight at 60 pounds plus. Until it rolled on the surface, I thought it was a ray. Then the fight was on!
