Florida second report - little tunny! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Thanks guys! John, how deep do you think I need to go to find king mackerel? It would be fun to start using live baits like that blue runner.

I'm pretty adventurous when it comes to trying fish, so I'll definitely give the little tunny a try next time as poke or sashimi. I actually ate a decent amount of chub mackerel in San Diego (cooked though), and for that I just did a strong marinade of soy sauce, honey, sriracha, garlic, ginger, etc.

You might want to give the River side a try, should be bluefish, tarpon, snook, snapper, jack, Spanish and quite a few more lurking there.

My brother lives in that general area and that's what he gets. I'll be headed out there in a couple of years, but maybe on the west coast, not sure.
