In this episode, Brooks and I have made it down to the Mississippi Gulf coast and are kayak fishing for tasty inshore species like speckled trout, redfish and sheepshead in some sketchy weather. Then we're showing you how to filet sheepshead before cooking up our catch back at Everything Kayak in Gulfport. After that, we're heading to Biloxi for a southern shrimp boil before hopping on a shrimping boat to learn how they harvest fresh seafood out of the Gulf of Mexico.
Alex: Try smaller hooks for sheepshead. I know you probably weren't going for them and didn't have the tackle but it's something to keep in mind. You can make a knocker rig with any slip sinker and a smaller hook and you'll miss a lot less of them. I like a bait holder style hook between a #4 and a 1/0 for them Date: 2021-07-30
