fishheads havnt worked good for me. i use chicken or old fish from freezer. i have done really good with duck meat, if i breast a bird bad i will save it for bait or if i dont get em all eatin in time they become bait. duck is very oily and has strong scent to it. we waded for them sun and easy limits as the tide was -3. all in 7 to 8" range.
