Simple Way To Catch Fish From Shore For Dinner

Shore fishing for some fish to eat for dinner. In this video I'm bouncing around to some different fishing locations trying to catch Sheepshead on Mud Crabs. It took a couple of stops, but I got the job done. This is by far one of the easiest ways to catch Sheepshead. Using Mud Crabs for bait I think is a very simple way to get this species to bite.

Respect Jc but plz stop being blowing up all the spots On youtube and then questioning why fishing Is 🗑️ lately , I’m sure the local guys will agree …

[@jamesrichards9921]

Fishing is hard I’m this area right now due to the cold weather and water but I see your point and his he’s trying to make money can’t fault someone when they are trying to make some extra cash

[@40s9s3]

Plus he doesn't usually say where he is. I bet most people don't know the part of the state he is in. I only do because have been there a lot.

Thanks for watching and commenting. Relentless red tide killed fish for one entire year three years ago and then red tide wiped out fish for 9 months last year in this area, also 5 years ago we had massive red tide fish kills. This is the reason fishing is tough in our area, not because I make videos. If locals recognize a spot that's great, but I only announce where I'm fishing about once or twice a year out of 450 fishing adventures published on Yotube. When I do let viewers know where I'm fishing it's usually a public pier on the beach somewhere. This works two ways, the guy who watches my video and gets upset because I show a location is the same guy who watches my videos to find a location to fish.

[@jamesrichards9921]

@@RadReelingFishing absolutely I think this summer is gonna be great fishing didn’t get hit with any redtide in 2023 thank god think a lot of our red tide issues were a direct result from a specific waste water plant here locally they were caught dumping millions of gallons into a run off that lead to Phillipi creek and the epa fined the hell out of em but once they stopped dumping redtide didn’t affect this area hopefully we see the same result this year

Because of you I went out all day, flipped rocks and gathered good size fiddler crabs then fished some sea walls and docks round here in central FL, no catches yesterday but gonne keep trying

[@Fisherlady2]

Mud crabs are the best I hook them through the under belly flap. Biggest sheep head I ever caught was in canal under bridge of Park Blvd. Love watching videos keep doing them

[@BornAgain777-m5t]

Hey JC, next time you do a CCC on a Sheepshead do it on the half shell. I think you did one a long time ago and it was awesome! 🐟🎣💯

[@EricSmith-mu1oe]

Nice video man. Hey man I’d love a video with you out in the kayak off a beach just trolling and talking. You’d be surprised what you could catch.

[@KnifeCrazzzzy]

I always enjoy watching your videos brother! Looking forward to more truck camping as well. It would be cool to see some local foraging thrown in the catch and cooks. Lots of classes down there for that kind of thing. Just an idea. Cheers buddy and tight lines! 🤙🏻

JC, I was out on my kayak on Sunday morning. It was brutal but I did catch some stud 20+" sheepies, a few snook and a gator trout. Was fighting the wind all morning though.

[@sherlockhomesky]

Wishin is wuz fishin....our water is a little hard right now and very cold 😢. Looking forward to getting back to my homestate for some fishing this summer in Fla. Good video

[@FrayedLineFishing]

I get out fishing every weekend in my Oldtown Autopilot. Last weekend was one of the best weekends I’ve had. Saturday I ended up catching 25 reds (4 being slot) and 1 15 1/2” flounder. Sunday I did better with the reds catching 35 reds (3 being slot).

[@YHWH7493]

Caught a big 20 inch sheep’s head on my lunch break the other day. Got some blue mussels on the pillings, no rod just 20lb mono & 3/o circle hook. Was a tasty one! 😁

[@YHWH7493]

Try the red lobster fish fry & put some coconut flakes in there I promise you it’s a hit!

[@PassivePortfolios]

We never had much luck fishing the small canal bridges for sheepshead, etc. The big pass bridges hold a lot more fish, especially in the deeper water near the channels, by the fender pilings. Hard to fish them in windy and rainy weather though, especially from a kayak, if fishing from the bridge is not an option.

[@dennisdugger7975]

Great video. Thanks. Catch n cook is appealing to me big time. Have always heard that Sheepshead were difficult to clean. Appreciate the demo showing it's not all that difficult. Do you use the wagon on the beach or is that strictly bridge and pier? Beach carts have become quite pricey. This video was informative, enjoyable and made me hungry for fish sliders. Subscribed and following. After 40 years away from fishing I am returning. Ohhhh, the fun!

[@RadReelingFishing]

You inspire me so much. We do get just so busy we forget what living really is. I work at a large church in the facilities department and then there is Church on Sunday but I feel like I just need to go do an adventure with God and fishing lol

[@RadReelingFishing]

My pastor of many years periodically would encourage us to just take a break and go enjoy the beach or something on Sunday instead of attending church.

[@bobbyhouston7881]

JC, just curious how the Ozark Trail Saltwater reel is holding up??? Haven’t heard you mention it, and I was thinking of trying to find one. Thanks, and keep the videos coming!

[@johnj.palica3938]

Hey JC, love watching your catch and cook videos. Do you ever fish for Speckled Trout? I have a place that is killing the trout. Me and one friend caught 121 trout in one morning. DOA lure that you already use a lot for snook. Sheepshead are schooling on my dock and easy to catch if you have crabs or small shrimp with small hooks. Also, catching redfish (mainly rats but some smaller legal slot fish too) by the dozens with live shrimp. 🍤 Hit me up if you want to give ‘er a go with me. Weather looks like it’s going to get a little nicer over the next week so it’s time to get my boat on some spots. Sounds like Captain Todd landed a 40”+ snook from the cove which we can sight fish from the boat. He used live shrimp. I like the white bait but the closest guy in Cortez with pilchards isn’t opening up until February. If we go to Manatee to get our bait from Matt then it’s best to fish that area. More snook and bigger reds up river on the Manatee. Or we can always try our friends at our friendly bait shop for some shrimpy tasting snook! 😂

[@RadReelingFishing]

Thanks for watching and commenting. Sounds like you've got some fish dialed in John. That's a lot of trout! I'm up for a fishing adventure for sure in a couple of weeks.

[@saneadam3512]

Dang JC that looked delicious!

[@timprice5565]

I'm confused. Could have swore I saw you using that pole crappie fishing... Ended up giving it to Davie's Locker. Good video. Also, pretty sure I met those young fishermen at a boat ramp nearby. They said they were going out on the gulf to try for fish out there since the water was somewhat calm that day. They also told me about a spot that they have been catching 35" snook. Thanks for the inspirational and educational videos.

[@RadReelingFishing]

I made this video before I lost the rod.

[@DerangedBanana2248]

Just curious JC, why did you delete that video? It was a good video. Much respect to you

[@michaelgreene]

JC, they got a secret spot??? Don't think all the cars going by would would see them catching fish???

[@MrNoelito1980]

Great vid as always JC, you should come out with an online or paperback book on the best fishing locations in the Tampa Bay/Central Florida area. I don't want any commission for the idea just a free book, 😂 I think a lot of the people not catching Sheaphead may be using too heavy of a sinker or to short of a leader or combination of both

[@rick_inflorida]

My guess this was filmed prior to the last video? Rip Green rod 😢 You made me hungry watching those sliders lol.

[@ChipMautz]

Ooh, did he break one? I watched his videos on where he got those cheap green rods and went to Walmart and now own 3 (or maybe 4, I've lost count) 🙂... they are so whippy...

[@rick_inflorida]

@ChipMautz the pole is hooked to a fish somewhere in the water he was fishing in. It's like tagged fish. Only if you catch it the prize is a rod and reel combo lol.

@RadReelingFishing I see you went away from your smaller butane stove. Do you not like it as well as this one?

[@RadReelingFishing]

I like the double burner stove because it has the wind guard. The single burner stove is good for when I need to be more compact with gear. Plus the double stove was a gift from one of my kids.

[@DerangedBanana2248]

Zatarans Lemon Pepper fish fry is great

[@SaltyC305]

Try out Jack Crevalle Ceviche. Add bell pepper, jalapeño, orange slices cut up and onion. Depending on amount you’re making split the juice between lemon and lime and add 1 grapefruit. Whatever spices you like and some cilantro. Key ingredient is cocktail sauce. Trash fish? No such thing.

[@tomhobbies6888]

I thought you lost that rod ? Though it fell off the kayak . And yes you are living the dream .From one 60 something to another. I'm in ontario canada thinking how awesome it would be to have endless summer to fish. But i'm stuck with 5 months. I go to florida maybe once every 2 years . Redington beach area . This time when i go maybe I can Shake your hand and say HI . Love the vids later

All right you said something about flipping rocks for crabs. You said make sure they don't have a stripes around their legs. What if they do? I'm just curious. I've never done this. It's just something that I would like to know in case I do decide to do it. I've got plenty of soft plastic fake crabs but apparently they don't work (for me anyway 😂). But just tell me some time, or anyone reading this can let me. Cool 😎 bro keep up the videos and fishing! God bless!

[@RadReelingFishing]

Stone Crabs will have strips on their legs and are usually a different color, more of burnt orange, but if you have any doubt don't keep it.

I'd invest in a drop net or make one instead dragging a fish to the bank if there is even a place to go. There's a net on amazon for 16 dollars that would be good to make one, Dovesun Fishing Net. Just need a rod to make the hoop and some para cord and maybe a few carabiners. I made a net for my jon boat from a X large sports equipment bag that is about 24in in dia an 4 or 5 foot long and a length of 3/8 in. alum rod to hang over the side to keep fish alive when I'm Crappie,White Bass,Yellow Perch,etc. fishing that's equivalent to making a drop net.

[@RadReelingFishing]

Thanks for watching and for the idea! I have a bridge net, just really didn't think of brining it for Sheepshead fishing. I usually use it for big Snook on the bridge, but now that you've mentioned this...

[@rider660r]

@@RadReelingFishing Just throwing ideas out. After thinking a lil more about it,I'd probably drop it over the side when I got there to the depth it needs to be to net a fish and tie it to something if there is anything. Then when I hook one just toss it over.
