King Mackerel
Chasing King Mackerel from Port Allen, Louisiana, requires a journey downriver to the Gulf, but the rewards can be significant. The key to success lies in understanding the baitfish migrations. Look for areas where schools of menhaden, mullet, or other forage fish are concentrated. Trolling along these areas with live bait or deep-diving lures is a proven tactic. The late summer and fall months are typically the most productive, as the Kings are actively feeding before heading south for the winter. A critical tip for fishing near Port Allen is to monitor water temperature. Kings prefer warmer waters, so focus your efforts in areas where the water is consistently above 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Also, be mindful of the currents. Strong currents can concentrate baitfish and create excellent feeding opportunities. The Kings in this area are known for their impressive size, so be sure to use heavy tackle and be prepared for a tough battle.
