Awesome video and channel! I really enjoyed watching! Keep up the good work!
Not sure why this was flagged for review? Thanks for checking out the channel!
Awesome video, I wish we have Sheepshead in my area. Definitely a specie I'm looking forward to catch one day.
Thanks for the support bro! If you find your way down here, let me know!
Lovely video. I use rock salt/ evaporated seawater. I noticed the fish don't like iodised salt.
Absolutely seems to be the case with iodozed salt. Deters them! Thanks for watching!
enjoyed your video , I've always used Kosher Salt , which is a coarser salt
Thanks for watching and for the feedback! It looks like there are many variations to the process that others use.
Great video! Nice instruction. Pickling salt is a good alternative as well , no iodine either
Great tip!
@@FaithNFishing Thanks!
I used some mussels I picked up from a local buffet just to try them during the winter! I had strong bites, but never caught a sheep? Did get a couple fish on fiddlers that day though! I bet they will work when the fish are really hungry, and bait is scarce! Looking for the follow up👍🙏
Thanks for watching!! I picked up a bag of cooked Mussels (no seasonings) from Winn Dixie and used those. I had success with them in another video at the Jetties, right out of the bag. Looking for ways to get them to hold the hook better, and thought to try this. Also, pinfish will tear them up. Will definitely do a follow up! Tight lines!
Very nice video, great instructions! You can use pickling salt, it is iodine free. New subscriber here
Thanks for the sub and for the tip!
@@FaithNFishing Great Content!
A quick question did you refrigerate them or store them in a cool place well they cured ? And after they are cured do they have to be refrigerated ? Thanks
Thanks for watching! I kept it in the fridge during and after the curing process. Others may have a different process.
Use rock salt for preserving
Appreciate you watching and giving feedback! Tight lines!
Kosher salt without iodine gives great results. THEY say to use non-idodized salt works because fish don't like the taste. That always sounded a bit odd to me. Good video
Appreciate it! Yea, I seems to do something to repel them.
I wonder if cheap bag of white rice would absorb the moisture. My mom would put rice in salt shakers to absorb the moisture out of the salt
Just wondering
Interesting thought... the salt has some preservation properties as well as drawing out water so is likely the better route. Rice definitely would draw moisture, though!
Hay can you freeze them after you have done the process
Thanks for watching! Yes, they can be frozen, just keep some extra salt with them when you do.
Are these salt water mussels? I have been wondering if fresh water mussels will work of the sheepshead?
Not sure? They are frozen, pre-cooked mussels from Fisherman's Wharf and I hadn't checked from where.
What type kf mussels r they?
Fisherman's Wharf Natural Mussels. Great option even without curing.
While they’re curing, do you have to keep them in the fridge?
I chose to but I don't believe that you have to.
Can you use frozen mussels ??
Absolutely! They thaw quickly on the hook.
The reason you don't use salt with iodine is that fish strongly dislike iodine. They have the best sense of smell, much better than any land creature. They *will* avoid it like the plague.
Appreciate the insight and thanks for watching! Forever learning!
@@FaithNFishing ... Sorry it took so long to respond. Yeah, there are several things that repel most fish. Petroleum products, especially gasoline, cigarette smoke, cologne, most sunscreen, most lotions, and especially insect repellent. Their sense of smell is so strong that they can detect most of these things on a fishing line that was simply in close proximity to someone wearing them, more so if it's braided line. That's the biggest reason serious fishermen don't store their rods in the garage. The smell of gas permeates the entire spool. It's like a non-smoker stepping into the home of a cigarette smoker. You can smell it seeping into your clothes. I hope this was of some help.
Yessir, much appreciated!
Exactly correct. That is why I use canning salt when I do this process.
Thanks for watching and for the feedback!
can i use frozen mussels ??
I used frozen mussels, just thawed and shelled them before curing. Peob want them as dry as possible going into the salt.
Use the non-iodised salt, I know I spelt it wrong, but apparently it works better, like the fish prefer it🤣
Yep, something about that Iodine! Tight lines!
Lol 😆 "firmer-er"
As I was editing, i was just like, i need to have some fun with that!
Are they cooked?
These were fully cooked, yes.
@@FaithNFishing sorry new bait fisherman, and fish still like them?
@@chasinglegendsco325 yep, they still eat them. Just don't get the ones in garlic. If you can harvest fresh Oysters or Green Mussels, that would be better! But these are great in a pinch.
iodised salt !!!!!! use plain sea salt
worst way to prep muscles!
