I know the drum are in salt water, but I'm wondering about your lakes Mike.

Cool, are they freshwater or salt or what? I wasn't sure about red drum being just one or the other or both? Thanks

Jason, read through my blog here: http://bigbluegill.com/profiles/blogs/the-bluegill-diaries-loch-sto...  for more info on parasites.

From other opinions and some research this looks to be some type of worm that also gets into the filets. They are deposited by a bird when it takes a dump, then eventually attaches to the fish.
