Had the cell in the case..Lil blurry...grilling the kama (collars) right now with a rock salted aji or horse mackeral. ..those are so good so if you don't catch greenbacks and get the silver and slightly gold fish with a little dot by their gills keep one and grill it...In japan they eat the whole thing head and all.

Went to one of the local japanese stores and they are selling aji for 12 bucks for these little things. They don't taste like regular mackeral and heard they are really not related. ...good eating little fish with white meat.

Maybe people will finally stop calling horse mackerel Spanish mackerel. I haven't ever caught a Spanish mackerel locally? Have you guys? I'm guessing no, they look like sierra mackerel for reference. Horse or jack mackerel sure, Spanish mackerel? NAH

Kind of confused me when I got here. I have attached a screen shot that explains horse mackerel aka jack mackeral. I just refer it as aji. When I was in japan all the sushi joints served aji raw with Ponzu sauce and green onions on top. Some have them swimming in the tank...i ordered one he scooped it from the tank made sushi then took the head and bones deep fried it and served. The bones, tail, and head when deep fried and salted tastes like a crunchy chip...good with asahi, sapporro, kirin, orion or whatever japanese beer of your liking. ..or just your favorite local ipa. I prefer aji grilled. As the screen shot explains it is not really part of the mackeral family...i don't like mackerel but aji is pretty good. I dip the meat in a vinegar soy sauce mix with hot sauce.

Ask any japanese person about aji and they will tell you they love it. Here's a youtube clip about aji as well. ..it's said that if you can clean aji you can clean any fish..

Also, a seabass is not a bass. We don't have bull kelp, it's actually elk kelp. There are no porpoise anywhere near here; there are only several species of dolphin. 90% of the time you are getting dogged by sea lions, not seals.

But the Mexican yellowtail tuna is real. I saw one at the launch once.
