I always thought s-heads were rare because I didn't catch them often. Once I started spearfishing I realized they are common but don't eat lures or fin bait. We went on a brood stock collection at the buccaneer beach pipeline when I worked at the Hubbs hatchery. We used market shrimp, ghost shrimp, crawdads, and squid and we caught a load of them. Any thing with a shell and fished right on a rocky bottom ought to work. Don't use light line, less than 30lb, because sheepies will hole up on you. Mike
