Description
Most anglers think sheepshead are just “bait stealers”…
But once you actually WATCH them underwater, you realize there’s a whole lot more going on.
In this video, Capt. Peter Deeks breaks down real underwater footage showing how sheepshead feed, inspect baits, react to hooks, and position around docks, pilings, rocks, and deeper structure.
You’ll see:
Why sheepshead keep stealing your bait
How close your bait REALLY needs to be to structure
Why hook size and color matter more than most anglers think
What triggers sheepshead to commit to a bait
Why bottom placement is critical
The best ways to react to those subtle “tap tap” bites
Why certain baits outperform shrimp underwater
