King Mackerel
If you're targeting King Mackerel in Florida, Titusville provides a great jumping-off point to the nearshore Atlantic waters. These toothy predators are drawn to the area by abundant baitfish, making for some thrilling fishing. Spring and fall are prime times, coinciding with the mackerel's migration patterns. Focus your efforts around nearshore reefs, wrecks, and artificial structures, as these areas hold baitfish and attract kings. Trolling live bait, such as blue runners or Spanish mackerel, is a highly effective technique. Consider using a stinger rig to prevent bite-offs, as king mackerel have razor-sharp teeth. A local's secret: try fishing near the Canaveral Shoals; this area is known to hold some real smoker kings. Be mindful of the current, as kings tend to orient themselves facing into it, waiting for prey. Kings around Titusville can reach impressive sizes, often exceeding 30 pounds.
