Kayaking for giant red drum in the Neuse River, North Carolina
With hurricane Helena on its way, Dontrell and I go after old drum in the Neuse River. After repeated outings and getting skunked, the third time’s a charm. The bulls like it rough and it seemed to make the difference.

On the next thing you make, with every scene or section try to ask yourself if it's really necessary or if it's taking time away from the other scenes that you really really want your viewer to see. Think about telling the viewer a story with each video and remove anything that doesn't help to tell that story.

      The old drum bite has been tough. The menhaden just aren't up in the river with all the fresh water. The different salinities show up on your fishfinder and the bait stick to the lower water levels. People are catching them on popping corks, but you need to be in a boat to cover enough water to find them. And if you find them, another boat can come through and shut the bite down. Good luck out there!
