    Default Mackerel difference between boston mackerel and thimble eye ones?

    I don't know a lot about mackerel but noticed something strange lately. The bluefish party boats have been getting mackerel every day. Only they don't call them bostons they call them chubs or thimble eyes.
    What happened to the boston mackerel and why do you think these mackerel are here in the summer when the water is warmest? I always thought of mackerel as a cold water fish. thanks
    Here is a pic of one of the chubs
