Spanish Mackerel
For a fast-paced saltwater fishing experience, consider targeting Spanish mackerel around Lockport, Louisiana. These toothy speedsters are most abundant from late spring through early fall when the water temperatures rise. Look for them schooling near the mouths of bays, around offshore rigs, and along the beaches where they feed on baitfish. Trolling spoons or casting flashy lures like Got-cha plugs are highly effective. A wire leader is essential due to their sharp teeth. A local secret is to watch for birds diving, as this often indicates a school of mackerel feeding below. Several marinas in the area, such as those in nearby Golden Meadow, provide easy access to the Gulf. Spanish mackerel in this area are typically in the 1-3 pound range, providing plenty of action on light tackle.
