At least for me...caught one 17" mack and the usual pile of lizardfish. Saw maybe a half dozen macks caught, maybe 15", a few runners on sabikis. Macks were caught just past the booth, saw none further out, daylight til 11:30 for me. They might slay them later today, going back tomorrow

Was there the other day. This is my viewpoint. Lots of bait...but very scattered...so it makes it hard to target specific locations/zones for Mack's. I saw some big blowups in tight...but nothing consistent. If I were there targeting macks... I would run a weighted slip float with adjustable bobber stop and long shank hook. Try various depths of bait...depending on bottom depth. I'd try for 2-3 ft lower than bait. (Under bait pod)

I've seen that method work countless times out there but dang I grew up fishing like that and could not wait to get a rod and reel to start slinging plugs around...way more fun

Those albacores are probaby gone, or will be I suspect. After this front macks should be headed this way
