How To Catch Spanish Mackerel (The Easy Way)
Ойын-сауық
Want to learn how to catch Spanish mackerel without spending a ton of money on gas trolling or searching for them?
In this video, Capt. Mark “Hollywood” Johnson is going to show you how to attract hungry Spanish mackerel to the boat, no matter where you are.
We were in the middle of nowhere with no reefs, wrecks, or any other fish-holding structure nearby, but we were still able to get non-stop action and caught several other species as well, including jacks, sharks, and even a cobia.
In this video, you'll learn:
- How to chum for Spanish mackerel (including the best type of chum and how to create a great chum slick)
- The top lures that hungry Spanish macks can't resist (or tear up easily)
- How to rig your lures so that you don't get broken off
- The biggest mistakes newbies make when chumming and fishing
And much more.
If you want to catch more Spanish mackerel the easy way, you've got to watch this entire video.
Have any questions about catching Spanish mackerel?

Hey guy’s, RedFishin is very popular w/ us Florida Fiaherman... would be great to try the “Shady”,,,!!!
Great episode. Fun to watch and Captain Mark Hollywood is a natural entertainer.
I brought some spanish back to TN with me last year. My buddies have pretty much caught and eaten every fish in the state. They all said the spanish was the best fish they had ever eaten. That included saltwater varieties from restaurants. Love em. Cant wait to hit them again this spring!
Really enjoy listening to the captain! Keep'em coming Saltstrong and Hollywood!

I’m sure it’s a habit for captain Hollywood as a charter guide to not let his angler’s handle landing the fish and stuff like that, but let us not forget Luke is an accomplished, tournament angler. I cringed when he was like ah ah ah ah admonishing Luke.

The Easy way: buy a boat, buy chum, have a bottom reader, read the tide and wind, drive around in circles, fish for them, attempt to pull them in the boat. 😂 The easier way: throw a gotcha lure into a bait ball and reel like crazy! 😂
ordered my free pack on 11/01/2020 and still dont have them

What’s funny is Spanish Mackerel don’t put up much of a fight, u can reel two or 3 in at a time without pausing lol these guys reeling them in like they are hard fighting fish

What size spanish mackerel are you referring to when reeling in 3 at a time? These 24+ inch ones have a surprising amount of power (fight similar to kingfish on a pound for pound basis).

Dunno if you're from Australia, but what they call spanish mackerel over there are not the same thing that we call spanish mackerel in the States. The spotted mackerel looks similar to the spanish mackerel in this video, but doesn't live in this part of the world.
not free
Get that bloodline out of there boy
thats a spotted (school) mack not a spanish
Talk, talk, talk....had to move to another video as I feared the talking would continue and no action...
