My experience with fiddlers is that you don't dig them up. I have encountered numerous crabs in the marsh grass up in the sound. Take a cardboard box or a cooler, lay it flat on the ground. Set a couple of two by fours at a forty degree angle from the box edges to form a corral of sorts and drive them into the trap. JMO......
Sheepshead at the Jetties?
Has anyone had any luck with sheephead at the jetties? If so is there any advice you can offer. I know the boat guys do well, but they can fish a more vertical angle to detect the nibbles better and then they can power the fish away from the rocks instead of into them.
Thanks,
Thanks,

Don't know if they are there or not. Used to see hundreds at a time in the marsh grass up in the inlet in morehead city. You could probably use a fine mesh net and catch them as well if they are around. They tend to run away from you, that's why I say you can corral them. Good luck. Sheepshead are good eats.
