Spanish Mackerel on X Rap Lure

[YourFriendlyMe]

what is the best colors for kingfish?

[Reefari]

In australia, we swear by the Red head for Spanish (King) Mackerel, so should work well in USA. So a red head, and white body, I always run at least one lure in your spread with this colour. Blues, Purples and

Lumo Green also work well, The rapala Magnum XRap is a gun lure and one of my favourites, would also try and run a 20 or 30, if the area is deep enough.

Cheers Greg

what size x rap is this ? 14?

[Reefari]

Would say it was an Xrap Magnum 20, or the 30, Great Lure, and a must have when trolling

The fishiing is great in Australia, but the gin laws suck!

When those macks get hungry you can catch 'em with a dirty sock

[Reefari]

Good fun when they're on the chew, but the Rapala X rap would have to be one of the all time favourites, only problem not cheap at $30 a lure,

Cheers Greg

m8, i have a x-rap too. In dorado colour. But when i troll it, i always get scared that it will break my rod. What to do?

[Reefari]

Top lure, and gets great results, Shouldn't break your rod,

Cheers Greg

@Reefari ok, Thancks mate. Just another qustion: At what speed should i troll it at?

[Reefari]

The X Rap lure should be good trolled at 5 - 6 knots, That's a good speed for Spanish Mackerel,

Cheers Greg

[themarlindude]

@Reefari OK, thanks mate. Just one more simple question: At what speed should I troll it at?

[fairhillnorrie]

is that realy a mackerel??

[Reefari]

In Australia we call them Spanish Mackerel, or the same as King Mackerel, A pretty good one, but they do get massive up to 30 or 40 kilo's

Cheers Greg
