Drum fish are a group of fish known for their ability to produce a drumming sound by vibrating their swim bladders. They belong to the family Sciaenidae and are commonly found in both freshwater and saltwater environments. Drum fish are popular among anglers due to their size and fighting ability, with some species growing over 100 pounds. These fish are typically characterized by their elongated bodies and a series of dorsal fins. Common species include the Black Drum and Red Drum, both of which are sought after for their tasty flesh. Drum fish play an important role in their ecosystems, serving as both predators and prey.
