Recovering red drum stocks highlight the need for quantification of feeding habits and rates of consumption to assess predatory impact. To validate field-based estimates of gastric evacuation rates and daily ration, a series of controlled laboratory experiments was completed for juvenile and sub-adult red drum (~60–600 g). Influential factors examined included water temperature (17 °C and 27 °C), prey type (fish and crustacean prey), and red drum body size (small x= 76.3 g; large x=429.2 g). Average maximum consumption rate varied between red drum body sizes and water temperatures. Small drum fed at a mean (±SD) rate of 18.9±0.6% body mass d?1 at 27 °C and 9.6± 0.6% body mass d?1 at 17 °C, while large drum fed at a r
