First rigs south of GI
What baits would you be sure to bring? |

Get some live croakers and try for mangroves

First rigs will yield sheephead. Thats about it. Maybe redfish on the bottom.

There's likely some spanish mackerel out there. Online source likely have different trolling rigs used elsewhere that surely would work here. They're great fun to catch and tasty if prepared correctly.

Spanish are fun. You can catch them by thowing any fast moving jig/swimbait - they like it moving fast. You pretty much need a wire leader though as they will bite right through your line.

I've caught spanish before, but my children have not yet. I also love to eat mackerel, so we're optimistic.

Do jacks have a preference for live fish as bait, or will cut bait work? Is fishing for them a bottom type of deal, or do we let the bait down to where we're marking fish on the finder, or cast close to structure with a slip bobber? |

I think you may be confused. While jack crevelles do fight pretty good "Amberjacks" are know as reef donkeys. Jacks and be caught on the bottom or trolling the rigs.

We were catching big ones speed jigging the other day while trying to catch snapper. Jig color didnt seem to matter to the jacks

Nothing like a 30 lb jack blowing up a topwater popper.

They were in huge schools just shredding everything in sight. White water everywhere. I knew better but I couldn't resist. Then I had to get my bait back. 15# test and med / light. Finally can say my Lews got a good break in a I put that Waterloo to the test. I was a little worried it was too light but it did work.
