BIG Sheepshead And A SURPRISE CATCH Under These Docks

I had a really fun and rewarding day exploring some new water for sheepshead fishing. Obviously you don't see every outing I embark on because some of them aren't fruitful enough for a video, but when it does work out, it is very satisfying to find some great fish based on a hunch.

Nice fish.

Out in pacific waters, our sheepshead are red and black for the males and pinkesh for females . A very tasty fish to eat. They usually feed on crab and lobster, but they will occasionally eat a squid or shrimp. 23:29 23:29

August tog, that's wild, but hopefully a good sign for the late fall and winter

Hey, I have caught a lot of large sheeps on CBBT. These are 24 inch plus fish. I use at least 20 feet of 40 lb floro leader to keep me from breaking off so much on structure. I love fishing for them but they can be really frustrating sometimes!

Nice work

[@keitheads4882]

That is my favorite fish to eat!

It’s kind of funny how the role is reversed up in the north east, Sheep are exotics here 😂 plenty of tautog though

exactly!

That's good idea, I'm headed out to hunt with family that lives out there in a month or so they don't see as much fresh seafood.

[@ravtowson7825]

nice fish, which state do you fishing?

[@GregThomas-jn3pj]

Gotta ask. When you were cleaning the fish what was the purpose of the muiltable stab wounds to the head?

[@nolanminor6761]

good catch!

[@GregThomas-jn3pj]

They were some nice fish. Not sure worth going knife crazy. Lol. Honestly I don't thought there was was a purpose because your video looked like the heads were thrown in one direction and everything else went in another direction. Never the less enjoyed the show. Thanks

Use the satellite app on your phone! Fish the dark areas!

Do you think the taugs are actually getting established in NC? Like in sustainable numbers?

[@nolanminor6761]

not really, they are just a vagrant here for the most part

[@keitheads4882]

You ain't that far south!

[@nolanminor6761]

far for a tog!

The next bridge down for you holds some solid sheepshead as well. The back waters off from the bridge hold some slot\overslot reds.

You crackin the shells on those crabs at all?

[@nolanminor6761]
