It happens to redfish also, as you can see in the picture.

However, I think that black drum are more susceptible to a wide array of parasites and infections that either are much more rare in redfish or that are much more quickly fatal in redfish so that the sick fish are not caught as often.

We've caught a lot of sick black drum also, but on close inspection, there seems to be a variety of maladies.
