I still haven’t figured out a way to stop catching these sheep head. At least this one wasn’t a tiny one. He was a little bit bigger then a little one.

I caught this Sucker or carp of some kind With a worm on the bottom. The suckers head was pretty slimy and left a stinky film on the pier where i took a pic and removed the hook from it. I really don’t mind catching them even with the stinky slime they create. They usually put up a fight and are a little too heavy to lift out of the water without getting your hands wet.
This Pix is of Michelle strapping Brandon in after he was tired from playing at the park. He was trying to say something when i took the picture I don’t remember what it was just that it was silly.
Just another Stinky SheepHead. So many of these I dont know what to write about them. Guess i will have to try and remember more details when i catch them. Either that or just stop taking pictures of them. I think i need to research a bait that sheep head dont like and other fish do.

Well here is one of the smallest sheep heads i have caught in my life. I hope to take more pictures from different perspectives. I Would like to take requests. If anyone has enough guts to post any suggestions of what kind of pictures would be most interesting. |
I am also posting this out of the normal format to show some examples of how simple it is to modify and customize posts.
Sheephead are called “trash fish” for a reason, they aren’t for eating. The only thing i have heard good about them is to put them into a grinder and freeze them and tie the frozen bad of ground up sheep head to a boat or pier as chum.
This Striper or whitebass took off fast swimming down streem when i set the hook. For a smaller fish they put up a pretty good fight. Expecially if you use a lighter action rod. This one was caught using a yellow mister twister. I have had alot of luck with that color.
Just another picture of a sheephead that swallowed the hook. I snipped the line off as close to its lips. I think the hook will come out naturally. I will have to be buying some more hooks if these sheep head dont stop biting.
Another Sheep Head. They are hard not to catch. The worst part is they keep swallowing the hooks so every time they do they waste my time having to retie my hooks.
The best part in this picture is the water.
Austin sure was chipper in these snapshots. I think he enjoyed spending the day playing with the neighbor girls.
