Off Kilter Fishing
United States
Приєднався 4 кві 2014
Off-Kil·ter, adjective : away from the usual, a bit askew, far-out, curious, eccentric. This channel will focus on Sheepshead fishing techniques that are not what you have seen advertised as “How To Catch Sheepshead”. Come along for the ride as I also target Black Drum, Red Drum, Flounder, Tautog and pretty much anything else that swims. It’s called allowed. Get out there and be somebody!
BRIDGE BROUHAHA - Sheepshead and Black Drum Fishing
It's 2025, let's go fishing for some bridge dwellers that really put up a fuss! I am trying to capture how these fish feed underwater and will only get better at it. I put several fish on board and had a really fun time on this cold and windy early January day. Get out there and be somebody!

Fresh bait matters. Catch Mud Crabs under "stuff", below the high tide line (Wear Gloves, oyster cuts are nasty). The purple crabs with spots and striped legs are stone crabs and are illegal to possess.

GAME OVER - Sheepshead Master Class

Mid to Late Summer is prime time for Sheepshead action here in the Carolinas. Rain days make for fun fishing because they provide cooler temps and less boat traffic. Sea Urchins and Mud Crabs are excellent bait to target these tasty fish. To me, Sea Urchins are by far the best bait for this time of year. Let me know what you think about that!

TROUT BATTLE - New PB! Appalachian Fishing Hike
Переглядів 9236 місяців тому
The Appalachian Mountains of NC hold a special place in my heart. Something surreal about those hills. Cold water rushing through the rocks and the vegetation seems as if it was planted there and kept up by a team of gardeners. The trout are abundant and the fishing pressure is sparse. Such a peaceful place. Take a hike, get lost and find yourself. Get out there and be somebody! Gear Used: 25 y...

RED DRUM OR BUST! Surf Fishing Paradise

North Carolina offers great surf fishing from early Spring all the way through late Fall. We are in the middle of June and there are a variety of species to catch in the Summer, including Red Drum, which was the target on this day. I like to use sand fleas if they are available but live Striped Killifish and cut Mullet are hard to beat. Swarms of Pinfish made fishing difficult today, but we man...

That was a great video. Keep posting them.
That's a cool video, Glad u did this one
Sick footage brotha 👊👊
Awesome footage!!! I'm amazed how many sheep are around here in January
Great video man always makes my day seeing a new video 💪🏽. Is it hard to get boild sand fleas out there? i tried them for sheep’s work pretty good.
I didn't catch any sand fleas this year, I am kicking myself right now. They work really well this time of year.
People really can't appreciate how hard it is to get a sheep to eat on camera. I spent an entire summer trying to make one comprehensive video. Would up having my hard drive fail and lost about 100 hours of video and just gave up.
I'm getting it dialed in now, been a long road to be sure.
It’s crazy how aggressive those sheepshead are to one another when they’re feeding
Watching the sheep head feed was different. Thanks for sharing. Tight lines🤙🏾
How do you like to cook your black drum? I’d love to see you do another yellow perch video. When do you think the best time of the year to catch yellow perch is?
Cook Black Drum similar to Red Drum and Sheepshead, they are good any number of ways and freeze well also. January is the best month for perch.
Thanks.
There's nothing but great underwater video! Interesting how even smaller Sheepshead can get that big urchin in it's mouth.
I’m just a little off kilter , we’re going fishing 🤙🏻 , almost impossible for me to fish a bridge and not sing this in my head . Love the content
Can you tell or show us some time in the near future how to find sea urchins myself have never been fishing for sheep head I would really appreciate thanks 👍🏻🎣🇺🇸
Man I keep accidentally watching saltwater sheepshead videos , some day I'll travel 1000 miles and catch some saltwater fish you'll have me ready lol, thanks for sharing
Best way is to bow fish em
I have the exact same tackle box same color and everything I’ve had it for years been using it each time I’ve been stationed at different military bases. I retired back in 2009 from Ft. Jackson in South Carolina. I haven’t been Sheepshead fishing yet but thinking about going down to the low county. Great catch
When are you going to break out your frozen bags of sand fleas?
I didn’t put any up this year, fail…
Was literally in that exact spot today and got some tiny Black Sea bass and two 7-8” sheepshead. Granted my son and I were using spec rigs and fresh shrimp. Had a few mud minnows on a drum rig looking for some black drum. Nothing doing on that. Will try again tomorrow hopefully.
Oh thanks for the recipe i will try it .
Technical term fish cakes?
Nice. When is a good time of year to try the bogue inlet pier
June - September is my best luck for the big fish. Best time is sunrise to around 8am.
@offkilterfishing thanks man, enjoy your content. you dang sure got them figured out!
great video as always, I noticed that when you bleed out your fish it seems like it always on the right side, is that what your do or do you do the left side also?
Another Great video. Bought a house between Oak Island and Holden Beach and was scouting for structure, I found some bridges, hopefully I will have the same success as you. Keep'em coming.
Go soak some bait, good luck sir!
Great video!
Urchins and crabs in the winter? How are you managing that?
They can both be found all year in NC. Just have to look a bit harder or wait for a warm sunny day.
Great video
Oh baby, the Sheeps are still hungry!
GOOD GRACIOUS WHAT AMESS OF LOVELY FISH.
What is your preference on rod, reel and pound line?
My setups are in the description. This is heavy duty tackle to set hooks hard and land whatever decides to have a go.
Great video 😊
Did some underwater video on my favorite bridge the other day and was surprised to see a few keeper sized sheeps mixed in with an absolute army of 8 inch ones
Hard to avoid the little guys with crabs, urchins will do the trick!
Gotta get down to Morehead and catch some sheepshead myself. Great video as always
Looks like the urchins are still doing big things.....Great video Kilter....Keepem coming
You got the sheepshead eating behavior down! We don’t have sea urchin in GA.
GREAT DAY OF CATCHING. I REALLY ENJOY YOUR VIDEOS. ALWAYS WAITING FOR THE NEXT ONE.I AM 71 YO AND DON'T GET TO FISH MUCH ANYMORE SO I REALLY ENJOY YOUR VIDEOS. WAITING FOR THE NEXT ONE. NICE MESS OF SHEEPS.
What kind of sheepshead is that? They don’t look like that at all in California
Where is location?
Where do you get urchins for bait?
That’s a nice looking NC State bag
Whee do you find your mud crabs I live near you
I just have this one thing to say, you have some of the best young fishermen and definitely a top of the line net man in that boat !!! Way to go Evan!!
I need to get up with you. I have some questions about morehead city fishing and navigating through there ! Let me know if you have a contact

Some of the best tug of war I've seen in awhile
Caught my first sheepshead today. Thanks for the videos teaching people how. Unfortunately, it was missing a few inches. Caught 2 throwbacks.
OMG!!!! Studs!!! Love your videos my man!!
I'm going head fishing Friday. I'm getting fleas but I have to get them tonight. if I blanch them will they keep in the refrigerator until Friday or would you go ahead and throw them in the freezer. Thank you I really enjoy your videos
How do you find sea urchins? Can you please make a video of how to finding urchins
Enjoyed
