Sheepshead
Looking to tangle with some convict fish? Dania Beach is a surprisingly productive spot for sheepshead, especially around the numerous docks, bridges, and rock jetties that line the Intracoastal Waterway and nearby inlets. These fish are structure-oriented, so focus your efforts around any barnacle-encrusted pilings or submerged rocks you can find. Winter and early spring are prime times as the sheepshead gather to spawn. For access, try fishing from the Dania Beach Pier or find public access points along the Intracoastal. A light to medium action rod with a small jig head tipped with shrimp or fiddler crab is deadly. Be mindful of the strong currents, especially around the inlets, and adjust your weight accordingly to keep your bait in the strike zone. The sheepshead in this area tend to be good-sized, often exceeding five pounds, so be prepared for a decent fight!
