Just learned that yesterday a Mexican fishing in a small tin boat near Los Frailes caught a nice amberjack with a mackerella. 67.5 kilos or just shy
of 150 pounds. Think the record is still 155 lbs 10 oz but they have bigger ones spearfishing.maspacifico - 9-10-2010 at 08:46 AM
That is a big fish!mulegemichael - 9-10-2010 at 09:03 AM
i thought we were supposed to have photos with all fish posts????Osprey - 9-10-2010 at 09:28 AM
The Mexican who caught it doesn't own a camera. Best I can do is try to get a hold of him, see if he'll try to make a sketch of the fish caldo in the
bowl. If I can get that I'll scan it but I think we have all seen a bowl of fish soup. Maybe a vote here might be called for.woody with a view - 9-10-2010 at 09:48 AM

Okay, okay, I was able to get one snap shot a guy took on the beach of some workers holding the thing up.
Just before they took it out of the water..

Is that what an Amberjacl looks like? I thought they looked more like a yellowtail? BAJA.DESERT.RAT - 9-10-2010 at 10:55 AM

yes, amberjack looks like a yellowtail and they are good eating.

Ah, the elusive oar fish! Mucho tacos de pescado! maspacifico - 9-10-2010 at 11:44 AM
56 pound amberjack. Took about 30 minutes. I've had these things on for over an hour before and finally lost them when I got spooled. They really move
the kayak! I'd love to see one that's 150.

150lb. Amberjack? That's a back-breaker and a reel-tester for sure. Some real good eating.sanquintinsince73 - 9-10-2010 at 05:24 PM
