This is a freshwater drum, not a sheephead. I know, we may call them sheepies or sheep of the deep but a Sheepshead is a completely different species then the freshwater drum. Please correct the identification of this fish. And rock on, Don! Nice start to the contest.

I've heard them called Jesus fish as well because of the "stones" in their head with J's on em.

 

 

The gods do not subtract the alotted span in men's lives the hours spent in fishing.
