We found some good action today that enabled us to break down with some lighter tackle, and still put a lot of food on the table.

The yellowfins were still scarce today, but we found a nice area of bonita mackerels to catch. Don't confuse these with oceanic bonitas (skipjacks) and certainly not with false albacore. These fish resemble the oceanic bonita, except they have teeth, and the meat is pretty white. They were all about the same size, 4-5 pounders, so we broke out the TLDs to have some fun. They actually pull pretty good on the lighter stuff. I've eaten them before, so I knew how good they were to eat. I've never seen a concentration of them like this before though. We stayed pretty busy for a couple of hours. We also caught a handful of kings and a couple citation spanish mackerel to boot. Everybody had a blast!
