Here are some key characteristics of Inshore Sheepshead in the Fort Myers, Florida area:

  • The fight while on the hook: Sheepshead are strong fighters, known for their stubborn resistance and use their broad bodies and strong, downturned mouths to resist being reeled in. They will often seek refuge near structures, making the fight more challenging.
  • Size: Sheepshead commonly range from 12 to 20 inches, but larger individuals can be caught. Adults can weigh several pounds.
  • Strength: Strong and muscular, particularly in the shoulders and jaw and use their strength to resist being pulled away from structure.
  • Habitat: Inhabits nearshore and inshore waters, often around oyster beds, docks, bridges, and other structures. They prefer areas with plenty of structure where they can feed on crustaceans and small mollusks.
  • Coloring: Sheepshead have distinctive black vertical bars on a silver to grayish background. Their fins may have a yellowish tint and their teeth are prominent and resemble those of sheep, hence the name.
  • Type of feeder: Opportunistic feeders that primarily consume crustaceans, mollusks, and small fish. Their strong teeth are adapted for crushing shells to extract prey. They feed close to structures, using their environment to their advantage.

LARRY HENDRICKS



Captain, Larry Hendricks

"Growing up in Northern Ohio in a family of anglers I quickly learned the joy of fishing from my parents and grandparents. There are pictures of me fishing as far back as I can remember. By starting out in farm ponds and rivers then graduating to the "big waters" of Lake Erie and working at a local tackle store, I learned everything that I could about catching fish."
