I thought drum (black or red) were just salt water fish. What kind of drum is found where you can catch crappie? I have never heard of drum in fresh water lakes. At least not in VA or FL.
From Wisconsin here The Sheepshead as we call them are a Freshwater Drum. We also refer to them as Croakers because they give a croaking sound when you are taking them off the hook. I have caught no less than 50 of these in the past few weeks while Walleye fishing on Lake Winnebago. We usually feed them to the seagulls and pelicans and considered a rough fish. I’m going to try one someday.
My wife did something similar. Except it was that the sunroof was open. And she hit close without realizing the top few inches were sticking out of it. Oops. Good thing I am cheap and only had cheap rods.

I backed over my Eagle Claw musky rod With my truck years ago Would you believe it didn’t break! Bent up one of the eyes pretty good was all I still can’t catch a damned thing with it though
