Sheepshead, shrimp, and structure.
If you're fishing it from the shore, I'd try along the seawall or the jettes. If you're fishing it from a boat, the pillars under the bridge or the jettes both have been.
how about the specks do you catch them along the wall the same way we catch the sheepies?

I haven't ever "tore" them up at the pass, the ones I caught were incidental while sheepshead fishing. But yes I caught them the same way. They were deep, almost on bottom, and off of the structure using shrimp. If you're going to use artificials, fish them slow and deep.
cool many people fishing the wall? and thanks for the three s of march.... :fishing:
I've been fishing it by boat this year. With limited shore access, I've noticed there hasn't been nearly as many fisherman there. The jettes have had about the same amount of people fishing them. I don't think the jettes themselves will ever be too crowded, that hike out there isn't for everyone. Be careful if y'all take the hike!
Watched a guy about 70 years old jump from rock-to-rock, out and back without stopping at all. Got back to the wall and jogged off - hardly breathing hard. Basically jogging on the jetty. I was deeply impressed. Just picking my way out is a chore.

The inshore guides call the jetty fisherman land crabs because of the way they fumble from rock to rock.
I fished off the end of the jettys, once. 25 yrs. ago.

Where the fish are biting, of course.
I've sat off the jetties in my old 20' cc many times years ago this time of year and filled the cooler with sheepies.

;D now thats funny , been on both sides of that coin at one time or another
I just think it is humorous when the land guys are casting as far out as they can, and the boat guys are casting as close to shore as they can -- at the same time. :horse:

[/quote] Yep,kinda like the boaters that want to get close to the pier and at the same time were wishing the pier was a little longer.
