Figure I'll post it in the main since that's where ALL of my threads get moved to. If this one moves I'm done because I don't want to be that guy posting in the wrong forum. Been a moderator and admin on dozens of sites, but this one takes the cake.
Fished with urchins, clam, mussel, shrimp and sandfleas, urchins were what the Sheepshead were after. Got 9, 3 were tagged and released, 2 were shorts and 1 was 22". One of my friends just started doing research on Sheepshead. Also got 3 giant Oyster toads from 13-15". Not much meat on toadfish, but they're pretty tasty.
You should have shown the teeth on the Toad Fish. LOL They are as bad as Blue Fish, IMO.
I heard that they were also called "Poor Man's Lobster". Don't know as I never had one big enough to clean or cook.

Even with the 3 big ones we caught, there's not a whole hell of a lot of meat on them. They're very good and easy to clean. Those 3 will make 1/2 a meal for M and I, we'll supplement it with some frozen White perch from last year.

The way I understand it is: Questions about a place and pre trip announcements go in "Location Specific". Post trip report and pictures go in "Main".
So if we have pictures from our fishing trip the post should be go in the specific location. FYI I always put NC in the Main title so it goes to the NC section.

Pictures from your trip go in main.
You don't have to add it Duck. If NC is your location, it goes there automatically. The rest of the country sees it in the main section.

I put it in the location specific with the location and it gets kicked to the main which breaks the link I save which pisses me off to no end. Like I said, never saw a forum like this one and they way it does that is terrible.

If you're posting about a future trip put it in Location Specific. If you're posting after your trip, with pictures and report, put it in main.
That's where they will move them to anyway.

Good catch UncleRob, are you cutting the urchins in halves most of the time? I've fished with everything else you mention except urchins.
