We'll miss this one unfortunately. I'm headed to a bachelor party in Biloxi; ya'll have fun.

No.

I have no problem with rare or difficult to catch INSHORE species as long as they are obtainable by all participating INSHORE anglers.King Mackeral is not a INSHORE species and participating anglers may endanger themselves in an attempt to pursue one from an inshore craft.

[Chill-N-Grill]

Thanks for caring about our safety JT

[Jumptrout51]

You are welcome.

[CairoTrout]

Looks like our bigger boats may pay off JT. I can catch one within site of land.

I see this as a great opportunity for someone with a bay/offshore boat to make an easy $200. There won't be many/any weighed in, so it won't even take a very big one to secure the cash.

Although, I think its kinda dumb to make an offshore species the mystery fish in an inshore tourney. Why not Tuna, Wahoo, or Warsaw Grouper.
