Mackerel strips have been a hot ticket for me this year, even tho it's soft and you only get one shot with it, not like fluke belly that is tough, the mackerel has been getting pounced on, and often out fishing the more traditional bait, like squid fluke belly and spearing, with the good run we had this year, got a bunch stocked up, and have been using it with very good success! Anyone else out there using it?

Haven't used it this year ,in fact I haven't used bait in general that much this yr besides on the Nantucket trip I did on the Helen H in July(unles you count spearing on a buck or teaser), been mostly jigging for me as it has been the last few yrs. I have used it in the past,though, with success, mostly in the ocean. I always liked the silver part of the mackerel fillet best.
I did notice on both of my limited load CQ charters this year that bunker strips seemed to be working well on a bucktail. They had an especially large number of bunker in the Pt Jeff area this year, guess that's why!
