1) go light. These are small fish. You don't need heavy gear you will get more hookups with 15# mono and a tiny lure then a big plug (in my experience anyway) This is a pretty cheap set up (tsunami-penn slammer) but the reel has new drag washers and fresh line (installed yesterday). (she was nearly spooled I had to start the motor and chase the fish to get some line back)

2) these are beautiful fish when you first take them out of the water, color fades fast so release them quickly...torpedo style.

gogetm...this will not last that long
