    I have heard that they are a game fish in Florida, and people pay for guides to take them to the big ones. Hmmmmm....we are sitting on a fortune here and don't even realize it !!

    Hi, Florida Sheep hang around the Piers gnawing away at the barnacles and you have to set the hook very gently. You have to be careful though, not to cut your line on the sharp edges. Wreck fishing works too and they are good! Check their teeth and you'll know why they're called 'sheepshead'. Lake Erie Sheep I've been told are know as "poor man's lobster' but only use the meat above the lateral line. I have never tried it but I bet there are readers that have? Let us know.
