Jack Crevalle was the best I’ve seen in person. Fishing the marsh North of Grand Isle. Buddy sight casts at what he thought was some bull redfish cruising by at the edge of our casting range. Well he realizes mid cast that it was a pack of jack crevalle. After the lure lands he starts reeling in as fast as he possibly can as he didn’t have nearly heavy enough gear to handle one. It looked like a submarine launched a torpedo at our boat. Jack grabbed his bait about 10-15 ft away from the boat and promptly spooled him.

I did the same thing on Horn island.i was throwing a surface bait for trout. A jack came barreling through. He looked like a subsurface UFO you see in scifi movies. I don’t think he ever knew he was hooked. Jacks are a so much fun.
