Another awesome video Ivo!! I've been wanting to make a walleye fishing video for my channel!! I love watching your videos man, keep up the amazing job!! 💪🤝🎣🎣
Lake Erie is guaranteed to be a washing-machine on most weekends. Have to keep an eye on the NWS marine/boating forecasts before venturing out. I only take my 18-ft boat out Lake Erie when wave heights are 2 ft or less.
There is a free app called "windfinder" and it will give you the wind conditions by the hour - as a general rule on lake erie, depending on where you are, any wind 10KM or under is fine. 15KM is rough and for me., that's my upper limit, when it's out of the southwest (on the eastern basin) Anything above 15KM is totally out for me - I know some people go in that, but not me :) PS> Windfinder app has an upgrade that you can pay for - totally not needed - just use the free version as it is perfectly fine and don't look at wave hights...just look at wind direction and speed and you will be able to pick and choose your days wisely :)
I typically do not get any line twist but if you do, then a snap/swivel combo is the way to go. However, we did a video long ago, that I thnk will help you as well, and here it is ruclips.net/video/-4-hWQ8yOYk/видео.htmlsi=fw0Q22Sw6L9FIrrl
Every time I try to use your Stingnose, the treble hook ends up catching the line. Did you ever try a single hook on these jigs? How is this prevented? I never have seen a video of yours with this happening.
it's a lot to do with the technique and rod being used, however, I have 2 solutions for you and the second one is easiest :) 1) tip your stingnose hook with an eye drop or similar, as that will change the fall and help keep your hook away from your line - not 100% but mainly good 2) Snap your stingnose upside down - yes, side down...the fish will still target the head and that is where the hook is - this method is basically 100% tangle free :) :) :) There is a third option, and that is to cast it out and bounce it back, this usually works too.
Single si-wash hooks work terrific on these, that’s what I use on mine, and your jigging cadence can really affect how your lure acts in the water and can make your hooks tangle on your leader, sometimes a stiffer leader can help, but not always, try a different rhythm when you jig and that may help
They're a delicacy in the Southern US, "gaspergous." Sheepshead tend to be tough to fillet...their scales are thick. The meat has a firm consistency, similar to pork.
@@ChrisG9978 I do not find any problem with fillet them. I find them easy to do that . I cook them by the fillets coated with corn meal and oil a cookie sheet and place the fillets in there and bake in the over at 350 F and check see cooked and then enjoy .
@@paulmartin6895 I've filleted and fried sheepshead in cornmeal/panko crumbs in the past. It's not bad, just not my favorite (compared to walleye, pike, etc.). The texture of the meat is firmer than most other freshwater fish. I've only ever kept smaller Sheepshead in the 2-4 lb range for table fare, but have found that their thick, scaly skin does make it more difficult to fillet them. They're bony as well.
Nice fish! 🎣🐟🐠

@@thundermistlures I use the app called WINDY, like Windfinder, but I like it better. Have you tried that one, if so what's your opinion?
Soon I'll be getting up there to catch all those walleyes 😑..
How's the center console in cold weather? I'm debating between a CC vs walk through. Anything to share?
I love mine!! It just depends on your preference
A floater at 4:52 left end of the screen, wonder what that is!
Is there a specific reason you don't use a snap swivel on the stingnose? I've always used a swivel on all my spoons to reduce line twist..

Antonio smokes fenty.
Can you eat sheephead?
Yes you can , just get them on ice right away .
