Here's what you do with fresh mackerel, Japanese style. Soak the fillets in salt for an hour, then in vinegar for another hour. Chop them up and toss them in a salad. That's good stuff.
Now, quit screwing around with mackerel and put some time on the water, then you'll figure out how to catch yellowtail. Good luck.

thanks Yanni, I had to ask. I would love to quit screwing around and get some yellowtail. I'm hoping in the next week or two I will be making my first surf launch at LJ, no guarantee of catching anything but expanding my horizons.
