Local Species Insights: Black Drum

Black drum are among the most sought-after inshore species in Hilton Head waters. These fish inhabit shallow coastal areas, feeding heavily on crabs, shrimp, and oysters found throughout the Lowcountry's extensive marsh system. Black drum use their powerful pharyngeal teeth to crush shellfish, making them perfectly adapted to Hilton Head's oyster-rich environment.
