Nice catch, I know the kids enjoyed it but what he has there looks like a Spanish.

A king mackerel's lateral line drops.
 I don't know if this pic will work
A spanish mackerel's lateral line stays straight with a little bit of a wave to it.

Jeff the Asian dude (7/9/2008)
went to the pier on tuesday.....hardtail frenzy.....people catching kings but bite was not good for the good ones...baby kings all around......got serious sunburn....rest for the weekend pic: the kid with a baby king......he caught 12 of them while i was there....they are all released That was my son and he ended up catching 25!! They were all dinks (hard drop in every lateral line-including the one in the pic) and they were all released. From what I could tell, they all survived but two or three. He caught all of them with gotchas!!! Yeah, he went through 10 gotchas in the process. His largest was 23" - just under!!!! We'll be back out on Sunday. He want's to fish for the big ones this time!

easiest way to tell the difference, check the dorsal fin.... if it is DARK BLACK, it is a spanish.... if it is grey, it's a king... you can often tell this when the fish is in the water...
