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.
