Rubber-band release helps anglers troll lighter tackle for Spanish mackerel

Jerry Dilsaver

Spanish mackerel are a favorite fish of many anglers, and rightfully so. They arrive in late April and stick around through October — sometimes into November — and they usually will bite well. […]

Fishing

Solar oven is great to upgrade boat food

Jerry Dilsaver

Fishing

Jerry Dilsaver

I know it’s almost August and the king mackerel tournaments began in May, but suddenly it seems as if fishermen have decided to get serious quickly. […]

Fishing
