Nice sheepshead Troy, A lot will fish all day and never get one of those in the boat. Tricky little devils.

I'm surprised that you would catch Sheepshead on that rig, they are usually very picky about what they eat. The Crockers are garbage cans, but good to eat. Thanks for sharing, Troy.

I too am surprised that people catch fish on that setup. With the snap swivel connectin right to the eye of the hook.
Seems like you would have better luck with either a leader and hook or at least usin a pre rigged snelled hook.
