Spanish Mackerel

The classic trolling spoon for Spanish mackerel behind a planer or free-trolled.

Nothing outfishes a Clark spoon trolled at 6–7 knots over a Spanish mac school.

Spanish mackerel have razor teeth — always use a short wire trace.

They will cut through mono or fluoro leader in a millisecond; wire is non-negotiable.

Dart-style metal lure perfect for casting into breaking mackerel schools.

When Spaniards are crashing bait on the surface, a Gotcha cast into the frenzy gets bit immediately.

Fast-retrieve spinning reel for keeping up with fast-moving mackerel schools.

Spanish macs move fast — you need a high-speed reel to keep pace.
