Anyone have an idea when the Spanish Mackeral will show up around Murrells Inlet, SC?

They're thick in Panama City's pass.  (but they're small) |

They are fantastic eating. All my life I heard what an oily fish it was. Then started to catch them when I moved to Murrells inlet from NYC. It’s a great eating fish. We also get a few of these.  |

Nice! Gotta be a lot of redfish there to catch them trolling for spanish. As a kid we ate salted mackerel but I'm not a big fan. Spanish do make great grouper and snapper bait.

I did a charter out of Boyton Beach last year, caught a Spanish Mackeral, Wahoo, and Mahi. The Spanish was great as long as you fillet the dark meat out.
