So we recently went out with these guys and chartered the whole boat with a group of our Asian Friends. There wasn't ANY fish put back that was of legal length. We limited on Walleye, Perch, And caught and kept multiple Drum and White Perch. There wasn't any empty cooler space when he got back to the dock. And Yes, I tried the "Sheep Head" And it was actually a lot better than i thought it was going to be. Now im not going to go out and target them. But we will save them in our future trips for our friends. Just gut them and frezze them, They'll do the rest

Thanks! I’m all about free bait! When in Alaska I will reach down and snag a small clump of tube worms off the side of the dock, cut them out of the tube, cut them into 3/4” pieces and put those on a #8 hook to catch the small surf perch under the dock, then I use those surf perch to jig over the bottoms out past 150 feet deep areas for halibut and rockfish. I learned how to do that from a local who had been living off the grid since the 70s (he has since had to cut back to only summer and fall in Alaska off grid due to age and ailments)….

Anywhere from Wilson, NY to Sodus Bay can be good as long as the conditions are right. Other areas further east are good too I'm sure, I just haven't fished them personally.
