Friday night I decided to go and fish from the pier for a little bit. I got out there about 7 p.m. and about 30 minutes later I hooked into this nice Black Drum. It ran almost all of the line off my real and took me about 40 minutes to get in. It weighed in at 38 lbs and 43 inches long. It took forever to clean it because the scales were like guitar picks and I was trying not to mess the kitchen up to bad. I fried some of it up the next day and it tasted like a big old fish. If I catch another one I will give it away or else release it.

Ken,
Very nice fish! I am sure you had a great time getting that one in. Looks like you hooked it in the tail to get it out of the rocks by shore. Maybe when you settle at your next location, we can meet up and do some deep sea fishing and get some huge ones like that. Congrats on your big fish Ken.
Craig
