Big, Red Drum
Anglers To Shore

There is one place in the world
where the bass and bluegill are
plentiful and gOrw to tremendous
size. but nobody bothers with
them. That place is Virginia 5
Eastern Shore.
1t isn't because The natives
Cont like to fish. because there
are few places in the country
where people like to fish better
But as one fellow put it when
asked why he didn't fish for the
largemouth bass. We just get
used to catching the big fellows
by the boat load out there in the
saltwater, and it spoils us for the
little four and five pound bass
and the limit of eight a day.
Anybody who has ever fishe !
off the Eastern Shore can vouch
for the fact that it would spoil an
inlander in hurry. especially if
he happened to go fishing during
May and June when the big red
drum are hitting. Thees fish run
60 and 10 pounds apiece. and they
literally catch them by the boat
load
The annual run Of red drum in
the spring of the year is eagerly
looked forward to by the fisher
men in Accomack and Northamp-
ton Counties. and when these big
bruisers start hitting, the word
goes out to the lnlanderS. If any
