About Miami kingfish
King mackerel stack up over the reefs and wrecks off Miami, fast, toothy and reliable. They skyrocket on surface baits, sometimes clearing the water on the strike.
How we fish for them
We slow-troll and drift live baits over the reefs and wrecks, and put baits on the kites when conditions call for it. Wire leaders, sharp hooks, and steady hands from the crew.
