Yup, Sheeps taste great! Perfect for a fish stew. For some weird reason, I have never been able to get a load of them at the jetties like every other angler in the world. I think the most I've caught there is two. One time, i fished no more than 20 yards on either side of some winter Texans who were pulling them in hand over fist. I, however, could not draw a single bite. I'm gonna give it another shot though, maybe in January.

Same thing happened to me about a month ago.
I caught my limit of ghost shrimp on the beach and headed out to
the south jettie in Port A. I was fishing next to a winter Texan who was pulling sheephead out on every cast while I couldn't catch anything on the ghost shrimp. Turns out he was using sea urchins for bait (hog eyes is what he called them I think). He gave me a handfull of them and then I started catching them too. |

Are they part of the jetty or are they somewhere else? Were are these rocks located and when you find them do you take them out of the shell? Or just put on the hook shell and all?
thankyou
