escambia sheephead

Blake and I fished most of the day around the railroad bridge. We managed to catch 4 keepers and caught 5 others too short. I talked to some guys that were fishing the east side for a couple hours but they said all of theirs were too short. Im glad I had Blake with me to catch the 4 keepers. Anyone had any luck at bob sikes lately?

From everything I've heard. You're doing good with 4 keepers.

Destin is a different story. They're all over them out that way.

Jweb,

Check your PMs. Let me know

The frontal pics of the sheepshead crack me up man! Awesome day eh?

Hey man, I think we saw you out there. We were in that little sea chaser. All ours were short as well. Kinda weird i was out there not a week before and caught 7 nice keepers and lost some bigger ones. I think what killed us on saturday was the tide.

Hey De anza. When we got there yall motored off shortly after and then yall came back right? were yall getting more bait or taking a lunch break?

De Anza Jig · 02-20-2008, 11:33 PM

Jweb, yeah that was us! We headed over to judges bayou to get some finger mullet and see if we could hook-up with a red or two. No luck. Yeah all the sheepies we caught were small too, we had a couple keepers but just barely, we let them go. I can't wait till it heats up some. I love fishing for sheepies under that bridge. They get THICK in the summer time!

Thanks for the report. One of these days I'm going to have come downat this time of the year for some sheepies.

Nice report JW. We went around the Fort Pickens on saturday and nothing was happening. Glad you guys got out and managed a couple of fish.
