LAVENDER & DREAMS: Winter Sheepshead Fishing + Underwater GoPro

Sheepshead are plentiful in the winter here in NC but they are kind of finicky on what they will eat. The smallest ones may fall for fresh shrimp, but the larger fish are going to want sandfleas, mud crabs, or sea urchins. Black Drum will eat fresh shrimp if you can keep it away from the trash fish. Days are getting longer and warmer weather is on the way. Get out there and be somebody!

Catch Mud Crabs under "stuff", below the high tide line (WEAR GLOVES, oyster cuts are nasty). WARNING: The purple crabs with spots and striped legs are stone crabs and are illegal to possess.

Fresh bait matters. Good luck out there!
