As mentioned above, 62 degree water and mackerels and sharks 4 miles off PC last weekend.

That water is long gone. The reports I am reading say the tuna fishing has pretty much died. 62°F is about 16.7°C.

-edit- Looks like the link updates itself so you can see the latest ocean surface temperature images. Anyway what a difference a few days makes. The 62°F water is close again. Also the tuna reports were way better yesterday and today.

Thank you for the update. I didn't catch this thread the first time around. I think that mackerel fishery sounds intriguing.

When I was in NH we used to have fun catching 4-5 12" mackerel at the same time on sabiki rigs on a light rod to catch bait for Stripers, they really go nuts.  Never used them for anything else, heard they were nasty and didn't want to try one!
