I have been fishing KC Reef like everyone else with a boat the past Few Weekends
Doing ok on the sheepshead, I got a new personal record at 23 inches (about 9 lbs), Got some decent sized black drum, and we have been releasing the Red Drum , Red Snapper and short Black sea bass.
I have switched to using a dropper loop rig with a long space, about 18 inches, from swivel to hook (hook is on about a 6 in dropper loop and then another 18 or so inches to the weight. leader is 20 lbs flouro on light rods. It seems to work better for me than the carolina rigs. I can bounce the weight on the bottom and bait is right at desired height off the bottom with no swivel or weigt the Spades can see
