Went same day, almost same experience. VERY hard to make bait in the morning 8 to 9. Started with only 2 jack macks. First YT fought hard and broke the line after ~10 mins - damn 30 lbs chinese "fluoro"! Went back for bait and got 4 easier. Then caught two YT (15# & 17#) between 11 and 1 PM. Their bellies were stuffed with tuna crabs. Wandering how my mackerel could fit in there...

I also had one mack die from bites. Attached photo shows the damage on back and belly. Is this "short bite" from YT, or some other smaller predators attacked it ?
