Caught this video of a school of Sheepshead fish at Del-Nor Wiggins State Park in Naples, FL. There is a small reef close to shore there and this day had decent visibility and an abundance of fish!

How to tie a 🥨 Heaving Line Knot. ... This is an easy, but very useful knot for those times when you need to heave a line ashore or over to another boat. It's fun to tie and flies well. Tie it while you are chugging towards the marina and have it ready in good time. ... Use this knot to add a bit of weight to the end of your rope so it's easier to throw. Try not to hit the person on the dock who's trying to catch it! ... There are lots of variations of this such as the Monkey's Fist, but this one is my favourite for when you are short of time. It's easy to untie too, once the line is safely heaved over. ... The trick is to give yourself enough rope to work with, so make your loops a fair way down from the working end, just practice it. .....
