We used to catch Mackeral by the dozens... We'd use umbrella rigs and hook 4-5 at a time... Thing is, we wouldnt eat em, we'd cut em up and freeze em for making up chum for sharking...
Mackeral makes a really good chum because of all the oil....
You guys who love seafood wanna come to Cornwall, with 350 miles of coast and no point being more that 18 miles from the coast, we have seafood in abundance...
