Look around bait schools, under birds, and around the inlets.

If they are busting bait then you can just about throw anything at them and they will hit.....

Not much I can add to that great advice. I have caught jacks in just about every type of place imaginable excluding way backwaters altough I am sure the yellow submarines go back in there as well.

Hot spots are bridges, oyster bars with deep water close by, sea walls and of course as mentioned.. anywhere large baitfish are.

I have even seen these guys run baitfish up against a seawall. The baitfish jump frantically to escape, hit the seawall, fall back stunned into a jacks mouth. Snook will do his method to, which can make it hard to know just what you have on the line when casting to this frenzy.

Jack also seem to like ot hang around other aggressive feeders like bluefish and spanish Mackeral.

I once had a bad day of fishing, but it was still great!
