Great video. I'm glad you told me about this video. I saw you last week on Lockwood fishing for flounder. They weren't biting. You also gave me some net to catch my own sheepshead. I am going out this weekend. Keep the lines tight.
Thanks Jerry. I always wondered how to use the clams and muscles. I've only had luck with the fiddlers, but like you said, they can't be had this time of year. Can't wait to try this out!
Alan, Jiggin' Jerry here. I am excited to hear that this video could help you while fishing for Sheepshead. I hope you are successful in landing yourself some nice fish. I suspect that if the water temperature increases back into the low 50's, the Sheepshead may become quite active again. Unfortunately, as of January 14th, the water temperature in our location is around 43-44 degrees. This will definitely slow things down for a bit, but like I always say, good luck out there and have fun fishing!
Amazing! Thanks I learned a lot from this video... Maybe this coming spring I could catch my first ever Sheepshead, it’s my dream! I fish the Jersey Shore and Long Island NY North Fork and they are hard to come by.... Thanks Again I really enjoyed your video.
Hey Jerry it's Shawn from Delaware. We are thinking of coming down in the next couple weeks, wanted to get an update if the Sheepshead bite is still going on. Hope all is well
Jacob, Jiggin' Jerry here. I enjoy using a net when there is mostly just Sheepshead in the vicinity. If there are Pufferfish in the vicinity, they will destroy the net quickly. Pufferfish are able to use their beaks like a pair of shears and cut through the net and remove the Clam or Oyster quickly, but I honestly have to say I tend not to use the net more often.
Love the new intro & thanks for the bait tips! Have you heard about the SCDNR campaign to encourage the voluntary release of all seatrout? I'll post a link to the Facebook message by Senator Goldfinch in case you haven't or would like to share it.
Fishing FinAddict, Jiggin' Jerry here. Yes, I have heard recently that SCDNR is encouraging voluntary release on Spotted Seatrout. This is due to the dramatic drop in water temperature that has occurred recently. These water temperatures as low as they have been will cause fish kills. Spotted Seatrout are usually one of the first game species to suffer in these drastic temperature changes. I appreciate you reminding me of this concern. I am considering posting a small video explaining the situation to my fans and encouraging the same.
Thnks for the tips, much appreciated.
Thank you for the best video yet on fishing with the mussels bait for Sheepshead!
Been harvesting mussels here forever. Never saw them hooked like that. Fantastic!!!
Jiggin Jerry, it was awsome fishing with you yesterday on the pier. Thank you for the education.

Thank you nice thumb. What do you think the bite will be after the weather warms up the first 60 degree day?
How can I purchase that net. Can't find it anywhere
Sheepshead bite is slow..hope it picks up soon
is this frozen claim or live claim sir???????
what do you prefer net or no net
