King Mackerel
If you're seeking a high-speed offshore adventure, look no further than targeting King Mackerel out of Port Fourchon. These toothy predators are abundant in the Gulf of Mexico, especially during the warmer months. Focus your efforts around offshore oil rigs, wrecks, and natural reefs, which provide structure and attract baitfish. Trolling with live or dead baitfish, such as ribbonfish or Spanish mackerel, is a proven method. Spoons and diving plugs can also trigger strikes. A wire leader is crucial to prevent bite-offs. A local tip: the area around the Eugene Island blocks is known for holding large king mackerel. Check the NOAA weather forecasts before heading offshore, as conditions can change rapidly. Also, consider using a chum slick to attract kings to your boat.
