On that note live target has just released a line gobie lures....

Are sheephead really into gobys? What am i targeting if i get a goby lure?

With the proliferation of Gobies in the great lakes and the St. Lawrence it has become a staple food source for many piscavores (fish eating fish). Like FF says large/small bass seemed to target them aggressively (an easy snack?). Looks like Drum are into them as well.

Some people have indicated that they have started an upward trend of int he size of large/small mouth bass in the region.
