Fishing Tips From NICK NICHOLSON by the Texas City Dike
Spring fishing should surge with the drum run near the Texas City Dike as the last days of February and early March bring big catches. Drum average 25 pounds, favored baits are crabs or shrimp, and anglers should use 2/0 to 4/0 hooks with 25 lb test line. Caution is advised for waves from passing ships near the channel, and deep water is safer than shallow near the ship lane. If keeping drum, avoid eating due to parasites. otherwise release them gently or photograph a trophy.
