Amberjack

Amberjack Fish

Size

Average size is 20-60 lbs, but 100-pounders are not too rare and the potential maximum exceeds 150 lbs. World record 155 lbs

Food Value

Very good, especially when grilled or broiled. 

Fishing Method

Casting; Drifting; Trolling with either artificial lures or natural bait. Trolling speed should be steady at around 2 - 4 knots.

Fighting Characteristics

The amberjack, is a give-no-quarter, rock ‘em, sock ‘em battler that will try to wrench your hands from your arms, your arms from your shoulders, your shoulders from the rest of you and the rest of you from the boat. On top of this fighting style, the Amberjack gets B-I-G. Okay, boys and girls, put down the protein shakes and pick up a rod – you’re in for a tussle.
