How to Catch GIANT DRUM and SHEEPSHEAD ANYWHERE!

Spent an entire day exploring the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel and ended finding some good action. Learned a lot about the structure of the Bridge and the islands. Caught 7 different species of fish this day. It was a great day out on the water.

Would love to see your sheepshead catch and cook version. Man I'm hungry bbl...lol...

[@SouthernReelsFishing]

I did one last year, but trying to get more stuff like that out on my channel

[@sandraragole2411]

🍾🔪🍽☕🥧 too

[@raustin0017]

Been watching your channel ever since I found it. Question about your Live Scope rig: I noticed you have it attached to a separate pole so you can position it where you want and not attached to the Trolling Motor. How do you run the power supply for the transducer? Did not see it in the video. I'm ordering a Robalo 246 Cayman and looking for options on how to set it up the best. Thank you Sir!

[@matthewwhite3444]

Jesse, that was certainly an awesome day. I don't have any bottom sweepers. Would a general high/low rig from Walmart or the tackle shop be good for sheepshead and tog?

[@olddominionoutfitters1272]

Matthew White insomniac guide sells bottom sweepers online

[@SouthernReelsFishing]

Maybe, hard to say. Best thing is to tie your own. Plenty of vids on KZbin showing how.

[@johnpuckett899]

Have you forgot about your kayak or did it get stolen LOL hadn't seen it in a long time LOL

[@SouthernReelsFishing]

Lol, no still have it. Have fished in it twice this month, 1 video coming shortly. Just enjoying the new toy...

[@mattmobley1084]

I just bought a 230 BR also, should pick it up this week, which compartment have you found makes the best fish box? Thanks

[@SouthernReelsFishing]

I typically use the live well in the rear or the cooler under the seat. Next best bet probably would be the large center front deck compartment

[@jorelsmith1985]

Are you taking any walk ons for fishing trip

[@SouthernReelsFishing]

No not right now, gotta get that captains license

[@dirtychina5964]

Pretty impressive sheep's . Great vid

[@SouthernReelsFishing]

Thanks!

[@masfitnessoutdoors9657]

great video awesome day of fishing

[@SouthernReelsFishing]

Thanks

[@patrickproctor3462]

Toadfish are good eating. Take a cleaver, whack off the back 3/4 to 2/3 of the fish, and fillet & chunk up the tail meat. They're related to Monkfish and have a very similar flavor. Seasoned flour, egg, and more seasoned flour. Easy fish fry, very tasty.

[@SouthernReelsFishing]

Thanks for the tips! Will try!

[@patrickproctor3462]

@@SouthernReelsFishing No problem. The Chinese actually target the fish so much New York went and put a slot on Toadfish.

[@sandraragole2411]

Seems better when u film more then just few minutes. Cuzzz it feels like visit is more relaxing 🤜🤛🍾🔪🍽🥧🎶

[@rdo6566]

So in the beginning of the video you mentioned basically the amount of flow coming into the bay. Where do you get that information. I fish in the Savannah area occasionally and wondered if there was an app or website you use to get the information. Great channel! Love the kayak fishing!

[@SouthernReelsFishing]

I use Nautide app on my phone. Or they are also available on the web as tides4fishing.com

[@jayhash8932]

Hell ever need someone to go with I'm good for beer and gas money

[@SouthernReelsFishing]

Lol, no drinking on the water for me, I save that until I get home. But gas money is always welcome

[@sandraragole2411]

[@rjakabigbase5024]

Could you share your livescope settings I haven't been able to get the best image

[@SouthernReelsFishing]

All stock settings man, really haven't changed anything

Awesome vid man. Let’s go fish sometime!

[@SouthernReelsFishing]

Maybe one day

[@etzyn]

Know any good spots to catch sheepshead from a kayak in NC?

[@SouthernReelsFishing]

Man they are all around in the summer. Pretty much anywhere saltwater that there is dock pilings, or rocks and such...

[@volney53]

What's the website for the bottom sweeper

[@SouthernReelsFishing]

I believe tackle direct has them

[@josephjones9783]

Looks like a PENN Squall Combo

[@SouthernReelsFishing]

Squall LD 30 I believe

[@samtaylor7800]

Why dont you keep the bigger sheeps head?

[@specfever2]

Can you describe your heavy rod/reel setup for that big drum?

[@SouthernReelsFishing]

Its a Penn Squall 30 LD combo I think I got from Bass Pro

[@sandraragole2411]

Lots of samon here Shasta County.

[@ncguy6518]

Nice! Let me know if you need some help next time!

[@rjakabigbase5024]

Where can I buy the measuring tool you use

[@SouthernReelsFishing]

I think I got it at Bass Pro, can't remember. The tape measure is a stanley 25 ft tape measure lol
