MACKEREL FISHING in Göteborg – Stora Amundön

Join me on a mackerel fishing session in Gothenburg (Göteborg), Sweden, at Stora Amundön island. It was a late June evening, and I was out on cliffs for mackerel fishing! Here I show how to catch mackerel using a short Sabiki rig and lure (pirk) from the rocky shoreline. I was casting my line into the murky wavy water and getting anticipation built with every single cast. It didn’t take long as I got a bite and reeled in the first mackerel. Soon I caught two more mackerel on one line thanks to the Sabiki rig.

I was using a technique of making 5-7 reels followed by a spin stop for 1-2 seconds, letting the lure and hooks sink down a bit. This approach worked well. I also hooked a float that was snagged from another angler. Awesome evening session and good continuation of mackerel fishing season 2023.

Rod: 10-foot Caperlan Ilicium-500, 20–60 g.
