Fishing in the Med (Mackerel)
Hi,
I'm planning to do some fishing in the Med off Alicante, are there Mackeral around similar to around the UK waters?
Thanks for any info.

I spent 6 years sailing around the Med and often trailed a fishing line with a shiny lure on it.
I caught no fish and 4 powerboats!

Down here on the Atlantic - tons of Mackeral, we eat them or use them for bait..... we just spin for them off the beach or rocks ....

Re: Fishing in the Med (Mackerel)
yeh ive caught a few mackeral here in the costa del sol,big ones too,ofc,be careful if you decide to bottom fish tho instead,the weever fish(kind of a light couloured mackeral) give you a bad sting from thier spikes,hurts like hell for 3 hours or so,if you do get stung put the stung part in the hottest water you can stand,it helps a bit
