Golden Eagle - ABSOLUTELY SUPER MACKEREL FISHING

5 Attachment(s)

It was absolutely SUPER MACKEREL fishing today. It was all the MACKEREL you wanted - easily 40, 50, 60 a person. We had some BLUEFISH mixed in with the MACKEREL, smaller 1 lb. BLUES. We also had some nice size SEA BASS. For the most part everything was caught on bait with chum in the water.

Tomorrow looks like a beautiful day. Come on down with family and/or friends and enjoy some of this great fishing.

See you in the morning.

The GOLDEN EAGLE sails every day for STRIPERS & BLUES at 7:30 am from Belmar Marina in Belmar, NJ.

For more information visit us at www.goldeneaglefishing.com or call 732-681-6144.

See you on board

While they aren't Bostons they are edible and not half bad. I salted some fillets down and broiled 'em. I've had better and had worse. None went to waste today, just ask the mates who were still cutting as we hit the inlet.

I may be wrong (happens a lot), but as far as I know "Boston" mackerel is just another name for Atlantic mackerel, its not a separate specie.

You are wrong.
Atlantic Chub - scomber japonicus
Atlantic(Boston) scomber scomber

I'm confused? So Atlantic macks ARE also Boston macks which means Walleyed is correct.....and these macks being reported as caught are actually CHUBS which means report of "macks" is incorrect.....am I right?
