Black Drum Rigs & Saltwater Fishing Tackle
Prepare for black drum with bottom fishing tackle from Frank & Fran’s Bait & Tackle in Avon, NC. Whether you are fishing the Hatteras Island surf or planning a day around soundside structure, a well-matched bait rig is a good place to start.
Build a Bottom Fishing Setup
Choose hooks, leader material, bottom rigs and sinkers to suit your bait and the current. Shrimp, sand fleas and pieces of crab are common bait choices for black drum. Use enough weight to keep your presentation near the bottom and match hook size to the bait.
Our Avon crew can help you put together tackle for your next Outer Banks fishing trip. Visit the shop for local advice, check the latest Hatteras Island fishing report, or browse tackle by species.
