Cape Cod Funny Fish

Caught a Spanish Mackerel Saturday off Osterville. Last time I caught one of these I was in Fla. Fun on my tiny rod and tasty on the grille.

interesting, looks like according to Wikipedia, that it is normally a Gulf Of Mexico habitat fish, but sometime is caught as far north as Cape Cod.. hehe looks like you are among the few people to catch one up there.

Lott Bros. rod?

I'm betting it's an Ugly Stick.

Ugly Stick - I'm cheap and tough on rods

any albies still around? havent been out in a while and want to scratch that itch again...

caper 09-22-2015 12:30 PM

Haven't been out since Saturday and it has cooled off a bit but I'm going tomorrow to Vineyard Sound.

Actually that's $mart!! I had five matching Star "chunk" rods for dolphin fishing that were $120 each, in one trip, one of those Gilligan "three hour tours" type days, during a schoolie dolphin frenzy one was stepped on and snapped in half and one was slapped against the T-top and broken about 2' from the tip. I now have five matching Ugly Sticks at a smooth $30 each from Wal Mart. If one gets damaged I feel $90 less pain.

The second fish is an Albie, False Albacore, they are all over Vineyard Soundand and everywhere else. Bonito have more vertical stripes. Just returned from Martha's Vineyard and caught a lot of both. Bonito good eating, Albies don't make good cat food. Albies are great on light tackle.
