Record Red Drum Week

[Roadkillal]

If you are interested in going for a record Red Drum could you pick a historically better week than this week somewhere between the Rodanthe Pier and the Avon Pier?

On November 7th, 1973 Elvin Hooper caught a 92.5 pound red drum at the
Rodanthe Pier establishing a new world record.

10 years later on the exact same date, David Deuel broke Elvin's record with a 94 pound 2 oz
drum caught on the beach just north of the Avon Pier.

And before each of those records - On November 9th, 1970 Jack Scott caught an 82 pound Channel Bass at the Avon Pier.
