Red September
The most distinguishing mark on the red drum is one large black spot on the upper part of the tail base. Having multiple spots is not uncommon for this fish, but having no spots is rare, according to the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department. Scientists believe the spot helps fool predators into attacking the red drum’s tail instead of its head, allowing the fish to escape. Photo by Capt. Nate Skinner
