[QUOTE="guywhofishes, post: 31228, member: 337"] on the Red I normally caught them often while targeting other fish of course - once I stumbled into them I usually left or switched tactics because they interfered with catching cats or eyes I was targeting I guess I misspoke when I said they are easily targeted in the Red - at least in a "specific" sense that you can catch [U]only[/U] drum. The Red is so crawling with fish of all types in good zones that you will be forced to endure goldeye and cats while pursuing drum. I have had many dozen-plus drum days and quit fishing or changed tactics because of them. I would say a floating jig with crawler or minnow with a 6" lead is the numero uno presentation in the Red for drum if I was to target them Now you have me thinking I have to figure the drum-specific targeting thing out - thanks for the thought Thumbs Up I will report back when I try but it'll be a while - the Red is about to flood again : ( [img]https://nodakangler.com/forums/images/not_found/2015/05/fgon8_hgpng-1.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
