Default Got My 1st Spanish Mackerel

I got my first Spanish mackerel today. Awesome looking fish. Got em trolling a half mile off the beach along with some blues. It was like 10 to 1, blues to macks. I also got some blues casting and some short fluke and blacktip sharks while bottom fishing. Nice to check a fish off the list that I've been wanting to catch.

Nice. Bleed em quickly and onto the ice! Great eats when smoked! They make great dip.
