Sheepshead
Sheepshead fishing near Coral Springs focuses on the brackish and saltwater environments accessible via canals and the Intracoastal Waterway. These fish are structure-oriented, so target docks, bridges, and seawalls, especially those with barnacle growth – a Sheepshead delicacy. The cooler months, from late fall through early spring, are ideal as Sheepshead congregate to spawn. A key local tip: Use fiddler crabs if you can find them; they're Sheepshead candy. Alternatively, live shrimp or small pieces of oyster work well. Fish tight to the structure, as Sheepshead are notorious for quick bites and stealing bait. Anglers can access productive areas from shore at many public parks along the canals. Be aware of tidal changes, as Sheepshead often feed more actively during moving tides. The Sheepshead in this area are often of decent size, providing a good challenge for anglers.
