When you're talking gamefish, I like to go after
the sails, but Barracuda, Tarpon and Shark
are always fun, too.
What about Wahoo, Cobia, King Mackerel, and Marlin?
Yea, the Cobia are good fishing, not such a great tasting fish (my
personal opinion), Mackerel are good for catch and release (a little
oily for my taste) and the Marlin are just starting to make somewhat of
a comeback in the Gulf waters, but if they have an oil spill from the
drilling planned for the future, we can kiss it all goodbye.
Yeah, I don't care for Kingfish or Ling for the taste either, but they do
fight for a fish of their size!
We have marlin here every summer along with the sails, usually 50 or more
miles off the coast, but occasionally they come in closer when the blasted
southeasterly wind subsides for a few days and the water clears a bit. Of
course, it also takes the cooperation of the Mississippi river too...damned
Yankee runoff polluting the Gulf!
The oil companies...we've not ever had a spill here from the rigs, but ships
are another thing altogether. But then again, you use oil products, don't
you? Share the risk with rest of us.
