Whether you’re having trouble locating schools of black drum and redfish or just can’t seem to get them to bite, these pro tips are here to help!

Captain Peter Deeks shares his best advice for not only searching and finding these elusive schools but also approaching and catching fish cast after cast.

Fun seeing and learning that information. I remember doing that with blue fish and Spanish mackerel when I was younger, so it makes a lot of sense. Even though I’ve never seen either species of drum school up. Thanks!

Oh my gosh, thank you Captain Deeks! I am just so blown away by this! When do the fish school up like this! FYI, I am a huge fan of the “Dirty Deeks Leader” hack, I use it often!

Awesome footage and great content! Are there better times of the year to find them schooled up like that.

Great info! Now I just need to find the schools. 😂. What kind of rod and reel were you using? It looks like it was pretty light tackle.

Very good presentation and incredible videos showing both drone views and from the boat!
Hopefully I’ll get the opportunity to use the Teaching from Captain Deeks!
