Leif: Let me know when you are going. I'll go and fish for your cooler. I love to catch them but, I'm not interested in keeping any.

Re: Mackerel Fishing 101 Get ready!!!!
Having fished for macks several times last year, I have one tip that might allow you to catch more fish.
Avoid being next to guys that have an electric reel and 10-20 hook rig. I am not kidding you. They will wait for that 10th mack and ofter times get hooked up with a dog fish and tangle up your line. Especially avoid the one with a car battery hooked up to his electric reel. He is trouble --- Harry |

.. or someone with a light sinker..
I've had too many instances where a rig with 5oz sinker and braid came from other side of the boat, and took 4-5 people out at once for good 10-15 mins. By the time I got out, the drift was over.. when mack fishing, go heavy, so everyone can drop straight down without tangles.. |

Sounds like fun! Let me know when you are going. If we get enough boarders we can form a phalanx against the hordes.
Nice Lizard. |

That is a turtle. I have it in my office. He is trying to get out! Judy won't let him in the house. I'll be headed to New Hampshire with Howie for Pollock. Hope the macks start when I get back. Leif

Re: Mackerel Fishing 101 Get ready!!!!
HOw many rigs would you normally go thru on a day trip??? I assume it's the tangles that trash them more than anything??? I have jigged up spanish macs using the straw jigs, and they trash them up quickly.

I was thinking the same thing. I will still be at the dock when you start your trips in December if you decide to try. I can see the bottom of my bait freezer. Not good.
