Drumming on St Mary�s River

Type: Tidal
Region: Southern
Location: St Mary�s River

I headed out to St Mary�s River on Saturday the 25th, chasing after slot red drum. I hadn�t high hopes, two friends fished there yesterday and caught a total of three or four dink drum, a bluefish and a dink trout.

I fished maybe four hours, casting light jigs with four inch pink tails, white tails and chartreuse tails.

Catching four red drum, big was 24.5�, two striped bass and a flounder. Weather was very nice, fish started to eat better when the the wind picked up and broke the glass like sheen of the water.
