Holy Mackerel

Got one good day of fishing in do to a cold my new husband got Salmon fishing up north but we made Sunday a great day, We maxed out on Mackerel. A large school of mackerel have been chewing up the bait 2 to 4 miles off shore. We used silver and gold spoons rigged with 2 to 3 foot of steel wire. The water was boiling with Mackerel all over the place. had a good friend with us who has never seen a mackerel run befor and he was overwhelmed with excitement. The schools have been targeting glass minnows. After a few hours of mackeral fun moved onto the flats for some trout action but only caught some shorties. Did manage to get some juvie Grouper on the deeper flats of St Josephs Sound though. If you have nothing to do and want some action I suggest load up on spoons and head out 2 to 4 miles off of Honeymoon and look for the birds. You can catch some video action of me on U-Tube.com and plug in luckyAngler for the movies.

Good Luck and Keep Fishing
