My eldest son used to jump up in my bed when he was around 2 years old and carefully pile every pillow in the house on top of me. As I lay there, pleasantly smothered I could here his little voice asking me...

"...are you BASHED, daddy?...you BASHED?"

COREY TWO-DRUM!

I've been fishing at Fort Desoto for over 25 years and STILL that place never fails to amaze me! Tonight, after almost everyone had gone home and it was just me, the boys and our fishing friends Tim & Diana the largest school of Black Drum I've ever seen swam below us. We were fishing on the Gulf Pier and just about to call it a night when Corey yelled from across the pier where he was cast netting "DAD! RUN! RUN! HURRY!" I ran over to him and my mouth started blabbering the usual incredulous string of excited cuss words as I gazed upon a school of HUNDREDS of 2-4 foot Black Drum feeding on a school of bate fish. We all could not believe our eyes as Corey threw his cast net in the middle of them and started pulling. With the net ripping (it was an old net) he and Casey pulled up a monster Drum! Others fell through the gaping hole in the net. He managed one more throw and pulled up one more. As fast as the school showed up it was gone, leaving us with one hell of a fish story and a the fish to prove it! GREAT JOB COREY JOE for spotting and catching these amazing fish! THANK YOU COREY TWO-DRUM!

Here are a few more PICTURES!
