About this episode
Black drum are built like tanks and finding and catching the biggest ones is a whole different game.
In this episode, I’m joined by Capt. Alex Heim to break down everything you need to know about targeting monster black drum. We talk about how to find them, where they hold, and what it takes to turn a giant mark on the screen into a fish in the boat.
We get into the lures, baits, tackle, rods, reels, leaders, hooks, and gear that give you the best chance of landing these powerful fish. And, of course, we share some stories from chasing—and catching—some seriously big black drum.
If you’ve ever wanted to target monster black drum, this episode is packed with information, tips, and real-world experience to help you find them and put one in the boat.
