Ray Roberts, Drum everywhere?

Didn't use to think too much about catching a Drum now and then while Bass fishing. But now it seems a little too often, caught 5 on one trip and three on another. I just want to catch Black Bass, not drum, what am I doing wrong?

There's a lot of drum in Roberts, always have been, recently population growing more. Nothing you can do just toss em back and keep fishing.

They eat zebra mussels. They is good fish.

Yep.... Seems like I catch'em every trip, regardless the bait ....

Why the gripe ? your catchin fish....

I hear ya I caught a 14 lber and thought I had the lake record while fishing a friendly tournament against a couple buddies!
Took me 10 mins to get in and measured 26 and 1/2 inches pull it up and was dumb founded!!@!

Yes, catching fish, just not what I was looking for. I guess if they eat the Zebra mussel that is a good thing. Wow on that 14 pounder, I'll bet that was a fight!

I caught a five pounder today and it was s fight I can't imagine a fourteen pounder

Drum taste good with creamy crawfish sauce on it.

You can't control what bites your lure. Catching is always good.

I have eaten tons of drum. They are the redfish's cousin. They just don't get any respect.

And the beat goes on!

Caught a 15lb drum once on a jig. Thought for sure I had a SAL.

Fun fish. I would not mind catching more.
