Sheepshead

Various

Targeting sheepshead around Eagle Harbor offers a unique Chesapeake Bay experience. Unlike targeting them around structure in deeper water, here you'll primarily find them around the pilings, rock jetties, and submerged timber closer to shore, especially near the Patuxent River's mouth. The best time to fish for sheepshead in Eagle Harbor is from late spring through early fall, when the water temperatures are warmer. Look for them to be most active during periods of slack tide or when there's minimal current. A productive tactic is to use live fiddler crabs or small clams fished close to the pilings. Be prepared for a quick hookset, as sheepshead are notorious bait stealers. Public access is available at the Eagle Harbor pier, but be mindful of local regulations and parking restrictions. The sheepshead in this area are known to be relatively good-sized, often exceeding 5 pounds, making for a rewarding catch.
