I think that is a narrow banded spanish mackerel. I has a friend who was deployed to the East Coast of Africa who sent me some pics and that's what they looked like. I could tell for sure if I saw it from the side (the snout is unique).

I will check my other computer for his pics, and they only trolled artificials if I remember right (I do).

I'm sure live baiting would be effective.

If you are setting your drag much over a few pounds it might be too heavy, that is a soft mouthed fish.

Let me check and get back on this.
