Drum info

Back in the commercial fishing (trammel net) days on the Mississippi drum were a targeted species, so somebody must have liked them.

I'm pretty sure I was served some when I was a kid because there was a 4 month period when we literally lived on the Big Muddy (slept in a boat or on a barge) and everything we ate was aquired within walking distance of the banks.

I tried freshwater drum out of Beaver once and was surprised at how good it was--but then I figured that since I like black drum and red drum (redfish), I couldn't be too far wrong.  I won't hesitate to keep and eat them.
