Late Spring 2016 Sheepshead primer

[kimchi24]

The sheephead really is a strong fish. i think its one of the strongest fighting fish I've personally experienced. The biggest one I caught was in Lake Nippissing about 5 years ago. I was trolling the bottom with a jighead and a worm. Hoping to get some Walleye but instead i got a crazy fight that gave my 8lbs pound test a run for it's money. I havent seen any since around my area but im sure they are there. I tried them as food and the result was... ok. I meant he meat was much firmer in texture than I wanted but the taste wasn't bad.
