I'm headed down there tomorrow and I was just wondering what's running there this time of year. A buddy of mine told me he was catching drum down there this past weekend and that's why I'm goin.

Upper slot size pups & yearlings on grubs. Small pups & puffers on shrimp. Big drum should be hitting bait soon.

Enjoy active searching/casting/jigging (vs. soaking bait). Was wondering what type of grubs are typically used....? range of jig wts? Thanks

3/8 to 1/2 jig head with 3" and 4" grubs

Thanks for info. I have heard many use gulp shrimp as tails. Using just regular rubber tails - do you have any preferred colors for tails?

What rod are you using tossing those around?

Bronzbck uses a 8' Century rod for throwing jigs .... I built it for him and it is different, real short butt .... River

I also use the Carolina Cast Pro 8' rod. I got 14 today

The butts about 6" if I remember correctly, Bronzbck didn't want the butt to hook his jacket while kajak fishing .... River
