Friday Sunrise

nada on the top water. Went back to the same spot as yesterday and very little action. Changed up to the gulp shrimp and landed one legal trout. Threw the trout back because I had sheephead in mind. Went out to a couple of rock piles and managed 7 or 8. Two were keeper size. The action just completely shut off somewhere around mid tide. Also caught a 14-15 inch red. Still have 1/2 pint of shiddler crabs, so I guess I will try again tomorrow.

Question for you sheepies…What is your rig for around either rocks or oysters with current and wave action? Today I was using #2 Owner with 2 splitshot and 20 lb spiderwire. I usually fish 12 lb mono so this is the heaviest line I have used in years. The rig was fairly effective, but I am sure that there is better.

Narcosis

I fish with 70lb braid to florocarbon leader. i use split shots anywhere from 2 to 7 i like the feel of the straight line and not an egg sinker and a swivel. Just my two cents. My sheephead record speaks for it self

30-40# braid to swivel to 20-30# flouro mustad 34007 #1 or owner ssw #1, appropriate weight egg on top of the swivel. i like being able to just retie the leader when it gets banged up. but thats just me its not really rocket science fishing, at least when i do it.
