  • @SNIPERsam15
    @SNIPERsam15 6 років тому +1

    Just as a heads up this is a regulation from TPWD.
    It is unlawful to take or kill shell-bearing mollusks, hermit crabs, starfish or sea urchins from Nov. 1 through Apr. 30 within the following boundary: the bay and pass sides of South Padre Island from the east end of the north jetty at Brazos Santiago Pass to the west end of West Marisol Drive in the town of South Padre Island, out 1,000 yards from the mean high-tide line, and bounded to the south by the centerline of the Brazos Santiago Pass.
    I know this doesn't apply to everyone, but it's a good thing to know.

    awesome! I wish this video had been out when I fished cocoa beach pier in Florida last month! there were MONSTER sheepshead everywhere! I was just starting to target them and only caught 2, but they were great. I used sand fleas. what size/type hook do you use? and how to set the hook? right after the bump, or wait?

    • @BrscMC
      @BrscMC  8 років тому

      Size/type????

    • @jeremiahgiles3593
      @jeremiahgiles3593 8 років тому

      Yes. For example, I tried using a #2 octopus circle hook. Do you use regular J hooks? And how to set the hook on a sheepshead? I've been told to slowly pull up the rod and start reeling.

    • @BrscMC
      @BrscMC  8 років тому +1

      +Jeremiah Giles I use a small treble hook. size 10 and I set the hook hard!

    • @jeremiahgiles3593
      @jeremiahgiles3593 8 років тому +1

      Thanks. That's new. I never heard of treble hooks working on them. I'll try a 1/0 treble against a circle or J hook and see which catches more fish. And the hermit crabs too. I finally have a use for the ones I catch in the traps now :D

    It's not that they are hard to hook, you just have to be patient because they will mouth the bait and swim with it..when they swallow..Zap..you got em' . Good eating too...nice delicate fillets. I find the best bait is fiddler crabs. No need to break out the hermit crabs...But. use what works. Tight lines.

    • @BrscMC
      @BrscMC  6 років тому

      GKAtascosa that’s exactly what I say... I like to wait for the line to move to make sure they’ve eaten the bait. Thanks for the advice though.
