  • It's a hot summer day and we're out on Lake Erie fishing for sheepshead. You'd think we'd be out catching another kind of fish, but we're actually jigging for sheephead with Stingnose Jigging Spoons. Sheephead They are a strong fish and give a great fight!

    I used to see huge Sheephead rolling around the marinas on Lake Eerie. I was always told, "You don't want to catch those dirty things" lol Same was said about carp though, and carp are some of my favourite fish to target.

    So glad you did this! Not usually something I TRY to catch, but they are great fun to reel in and love to fight! They don’t get enough respect

    Ivo back in the late seventies when I fished Lake Erie we would stay all weekend in a camp and fish all weekend. There was a man in the camp told us to keep the sheep head he’s got a way to fix them so we would go walleye fishing and we’d bring him back the sheep head. What it was he made himself a homemade smoker and he would smoke those sheep head. I’m telling you they was pretty good eating 👍on the video

    Not sure what a Lake Erie sheephead would taste like, but I catch them in Oneida lake in Upstate New York all the time and I tell you, they are really good eating.

    Really like these sheephead videos! Good way to show off those new lures. Wish it was a bit longer though. You should include some more dialogue. What does Antonio/Ivo think about sheepshead vs catfish? Why don't you eat them? What other baits might work? etc, etc...

    I don't understand their reputation as a "trash" fish. They are fun as heck to catch, and they have tasty firm white meat.

    Bought some stingnoses a few weeks ago. Finally caught a 2" bluegill with the 1/16th. So I guess Im finally figuring them out lol
    FYI definitely make sure theres no structure. I already lost my 1/2oz trying to bounce it off the bottom.

    I get ribbed by some of my fishing buddies for cooking and eating these fish, but I'll tell you they are way under-appreciated! They have a firm flesh that tastes a lot like cod and I love cod. My family loves it when I cook up a Bangladeshi-style stew served over rice that I learned from another of my favorite UA-cam sites. Bon voyage my friends!

      Mark they seem like a saltwater fish that got trapped in freshwater eons ago. They remind me of black drum and redfish. Grill, blackened, or make chowder out of them. Excellent for poor man's lobster.

      @@billwalker4836 Here is the recipe I used from the Catfish and Carp UA-cam channel: ua-cam.com/video/e7_x9178hT4/v-deo.html
      The guy making the video is proving carp can be good to eat and he has a friend from Bangladesh come over to cook the carp he just caught. He's tall, the guy from Bangladesh is short, and they both have little kids running around to make life interesting. It's a hoot! But best of all, it's a great recipe if you like authentically India-style food.

    • @deepoctave

      Oh, BTW, just like some other types of fish, there is a dark strip of meat running down the side. I cut that part out. Also, in the video the fish chunks are cooked with the skin on. I don't like it that way. I prefer to fillet the meat, keep the light flesh and cut it into about 1-inch cubes. Other than that, I follow the recipe closely.
