Beach Fishing

Phil landed this Jack Cravalle from the Pier at Los Muertos in early March. He headed to the pier to pick up some sardines for his next day charter and decided to make a few casts. On his second, he hooked this fish. The happy young man next to Phil actually dove into the water to retrieve it and the fish was his reward for his efforts. The locals enjoy dark meat fish as much as the white species and say that it tastes the same, just looks different. Phil's jungle cats won't touch the stuff, they always hold out for Marlin or Dorado. Michael Mulkey from Arctic Circle Hot Springs, Alaska took this photo and we thank him for his efforts to drop it off at our stores. This is definitely worth a beach fishing tour next vacation, Mike.
