I would think the boys on the Cali board could help with that macfly55. If it was caught in the NE, I might have a shot.

I bet that fish started to bleed for no reason. haha
That is a Pacific Mackerel. Those will generally school up and can be caught anywhere from 2 feet below the surface up to 100 feet at times when they are active.
I usually save quite a few of those for Crabbing and Lobster season. They also make good bait for Ling Cod, Whitefish and can be chunked to use for Shark bait at night.[cool]
