It's vitally important to check your state/county regulations in relation to what types of sea life fishermen can use as bait. If you get caught fishing with something that is illegal you could encounter some hefty fines. For instance shellfish may or may not be harvested in the area you are fishing in Florida. In order to find out if clams or oysters can be taken and used for bait or chum go to this website which the FWC refers seekers to: [ Ссылка ] (I'd suggest calling the "Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services" because the regulations for each county are buried on the website. It requires an abundance of time to try and find out what's legal to harvest or not on the website.) Additionally In Florida Stone Crabs and Hermit Crabs are strictly off limits to use as bait for Sheepshead or any species.

Sheepshead are equipped with an amazing set of teeth so that they can crush various types of shells, crabs and barnacles. They feed mostly on shellfish, crabs and shrimp. For this reason the meat has a mild shellfish shrimp flavor.

Here are a few legal baits that can be used:
1. Shrimp
2. Fiddler Crabs
3. Mangrove Tree Crabs

Here are some illegal marine life species that cannot be used as bait for Sheepshead
1. Hermit Crabs
2. Stone Crabs
3. Oysters (regulated by specific areas in Florida)

Where to catch Sheepshead
1. Near any structure that has barnacles
2. Along grass flats that hold crabs, clams and shrimp
3. Along Mangrove Tree lines
4. Near Oyster beds
5. Under boats that have barnacles attached to the hull
6. Rock jetties
7. Just about anywhere along the coast from Mexico to Main and beyond, inshore and off shore depending upon the time of year...
