Big Drum
 
Besides the jetties, where would be another spot to catch some big drum.

I have caught them in Oyster Bayou in the deep holes. Just use your depth finder as you run along the bayou and fish the holes you see. I have caught them behindthe weirs and also in the ship channel.

I caught one in the little "shortcut" from cal.pt marina to get to big lake. Seen some fish tailing..thought it was reds. Threw a piece of crack crabbed and boom. 48 lb black drum. Caught it on 10lb test

Yep, all the places mentioned are good for big drum.

Best baits IMO are cracked or whole crabs and cut bait [mullet is good].

I was out with a friend, and baited up a whole crab. As I threw out the bait, I told him if something takes this bait....it is going to be big. About 10 minutes later, he was fighting a 30 lb black drum.

Here is one I caught in May on live bait. Second pic black drum was caught on soft plastic in Turners bay.
