Lot of good wintertime info, thanks! I fish very similar conditions/equipment, etc. around Palm Harbor/Dunedin and you definitely added some good tips. Question - what is the brand name of the jig heads you're using? I fish with the Lil John's as well and it looks like those jig heads would work better with them. Alos, if you're using super glue, how would you get the lure off if you wanted to switch to something else? thanks...
Have you ever considered circle hooks for using shrimp? I use circle hooks for fishing bait and really like it. A guy like you who fishes every day can avoid gut-hooking fish most of the time. But if you’re guiding less experienced anglers it is something to think about.
We find the most success using jig heads when we are looking for Reds on shrimp, but we will throw on circle hooks from time to time as they are better in preventing gut hooking for less experienced anglers.

Good info
Thanks for sharing
Hope it helps you out on the water.
Spelled it out in the simplest of terms. No hype, no sensationalism, no gimmicks, just how to get it done.
That’s what we’re all about! Thanks for watching! We got more just like this to come in the future.
Excellent, excellent advice. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Absolutely! Thanks for watching!
Living in Crystal River, winter takes some getting used to and a SHALLOW draft!

Those are the 1/16oz. Death Grip Jig Heads.
Sure do miss fall grouper digging.
Are the good times really over for good?
Hopefully not! We are still catching big shallow water Gags regularly and clients are loving it, just can’t keep them unfortunately.
