| I look forward to this discussion, because I've never eaten Spanish Mackerel., nor have I fished for them. What is your typical artificial bait, a silver spoon? |

Gotcha plug with 30/40 lb flouro... You'll get cut off here and there but you'll get a lot more bites. _________________ "I never had an Easter, but I've always had a bunch of speakers" - Beardo |

Looks like you got enough for both.
Ceviche for the appetizer then blackened as the main. _________________ "Money will buy you a fine dog, but only love can make him wag his tail." - Kinky Friedman

Ceviche is in the fridge. Blackened and sashimi for the main course. Don't have time to fool with the sushi rice tonight.
The smack fishing should be good into October. Schools of glass minnows are popping up about one or two miles off the beach. Gotchas work, as well as Mann O Lures. I use thin, brown, seven strand as leader material with the smallest black or brown barrel swivel that you can find. They will bite larger swivels and cut you off. Thick leaders don't work...
I saw a couple of large sharks that were kind of a yellow-brown in color swimming thru the schools today with their dorsal fins out of the water. I don't know what they were? |

Bacteria is probably my biggest concern with eating sashimi from smacks or red snapper. My fish cleaning table gets a good bleach scrubbing every other trip, and bakes in the sun every day. |
