A winter/spring standby. Ever since Florida succeeded in eliminating inshore commercial netting, many of our floundering fisheries have greatly improved. Spanish mackerel is one of those fisheries which has rebounded not only in numbers but also in size. These fish winter in schools off our beach and provide excellent fly rod targets. They are not only obliging, but a five or six pounder will be into your backing in the "blink of an eye". Spanish mackerel represent just one of our easily targeted winter species, ladyfish, pompano and jacks being the others.
