    I know it's well past summer, but are there any mackerel still around in December?

    Has anyone had any success from shore this late in the year?

    The only place to get mackerel from the shore this time of year is in Tesco.

    Hope you get a couple I'm going insane stuck indoors. The mackerel fight great for their size if you use light lures and gear down!
