Does size matter with those fish in regards to tasting quality?

Wow, Wow, Wow that looks insane! That is one of the best fishing reports I've ever read and great pics! Great work. Is that $5000 per person or for the group?
Cheers Alex

All the Spanish Mackeral were caught by trolling bibbed lures, except for the large one. We were reef fishing and I brought up one of these guys.
As it got close to the boat a large Silver flash went underneath. Allan, the guide, promptly put a steel trace on the Spinning rod and attached, what he called, a Stripey, and then heaved it out. 3 minutes later the reel is screaming, so I grabbed the rod and after several runs landed this beauty.
