I enjoy catching every species of fish other than gar!
I believe I have caught every type of fish I possibly could in the North Texas area..
But for some strange reason I really enjoy catching drum, because they can get up to 40+lbs and they fight good!

I live in Denton now, right in between Lewisville and Ray Roberts.

Are there any people out there who fish for drum on a somewhat normal basis or know anything on how to target them?

grapevine! my wife caught one at 30lbs. pm for questions.

Lake Austin and the Colorado River just below Bastrop!

30# drum in grapevine Holy sh*t

they readily consume tons of crawfish when it rains and the water gets turbid ....
I used to ketch a lot of em as a kid in the trinity after it rained while tryin ta ketch catfish with shrimp ....
best of luck to ya ....
seems just about every lake has pretty good numbers of em in this area ....
proctor is loaded with em ta beat the band btw

i fished an outlet lake of the trinity this Labor Day at the base of the dam and caught a bunch of drum. biggest around 6lb. caught em on a jig head with a boot tail swimbait on the back just bouncing off rocks in moving water

where was this? the dam at anahuac? if so pm me so we can fish sometime.

You can catch countless drum at Squaw creek if you have a boat. Sunday at the creek mouth- far west end of the lake, shad crankbaits, I bet we caught over 50 of them. Please go and remove these pests for the Bass fisherman.. lol

Catch lots of them at Texoma on crawfish colored crankbaits.Also live crawfish make great drum bait!!

I was crappie fishin and some guy next to me caught a 22 and 31 lb. buffalo alond with a 34 lb carp at Granbury yesterday. Got me thinking I may wanna catch one. Game Warden was there to weigh them

I'm sure you could go with the hybrid guide on Benbrook you went with last year, oh wait, that guide is out if business. I forgot.
