  • It's a live crab kinda morning. Northeast winds and some lousy conditions. I opted to fill the cooler with Sheepshead as the target.

    Sheepshead fillets can be wrapped in cheese cloth and cooked just like a shrimp boil and will taste very much like crab . One of those you are what you eat deals. Once cooked and cooled in he shrimp boil it can be used for seafood cakes, or mostly any recipe that calls for crab meat. Very nice quality sheepshead in this session, nice job

    Down here in the Panhandle of Fla the go to bait for sheepies is sand fleas and small mangrove crabs or barnacles. All of those work great but I guess it's all relative to where u r and what natural bait is around but it's always fun to catch the "Chain Gang"😎👍👍

    • @EliasVFishing

      I break off pretty often throughout the day. The swivel is about 10 times faster. Getting swept away in current and losing time with a manual vessel sucks.

I have a paddle kayak and I'm looking for a pedal drive kayak. I'm a big dude am 6'2 358Ibs sz14 4 EEEE with fat wide toe. My footrest it is too small for my feet and my foot will not stay on them. Wondering do you know how wide your foot is what what size and is the pedals on a kayak wide. I notice how your foot stay on the pedal drive. I would love to upgrade to a pedal drive but i don't know if my foot would stayed on the paddle. I appreciate if you can give me your opinion sir. Thank you and keep up the good work.

    @MrJuansWorld Před 4 lety

    I have so many questions. I can’t catch a sheep on a bridge piling, and you’re (seemingly) catching them in the middle of a creek. 1) Are mud crabs way better than fiddlers for these? 2) what kind of ledge are you working on. You said 8ft, but how much deeper is it than the rest of the creek? 3) could you see the fish on your sounder? 4) can you do a whole sounder episode? 5) were you stopped or drifting?

    • @EliasVFishing
      @EliasVFishing  Před 4 lety +2

      Muds are my preferred bait since the little croakers seem to hold off. I was fishing an oyster ledge that runs down to 15 foot. The fish were EASY to mark on the sounder, bunched up pretty good, but moving often. I was working the peddles to remain stationary the whole time.

    • @EliasVFishing
      @EliasVFishing  Před 4 lety +4

      Biggest mistake I do see on average is guys using too heavy weights for these fish. They will drop your jig or rig if they feel that sinker.

    • @MrJuansWorld
      @MrJuansWorld Před 4 lety
