Sheepshead
Peak Season: Winter
As Sheepshead feed on bivalves and crustaceans, successful baits include shrimp, sand fleas (mole crabs), clams, fiddler crabs, and mussels. Sheepshead have a knack for stealing bait, so small hooks are necessary. Locating Sheepshead with a boat is not difficult: fishermen look for rocky bottoms or places with obstructions, jetties, and the pilings of bridges and piers. The average weight of a Sheepshead is 3 to 4 lb, but some individuals reach the range of 10 to 15 lb.
