I live on the coast of Maine, and when we mackerel fish it’s just their heads that become bait, the fish itself is absolutely delicious. I love it when people complain about fish smelling or tasting fishy. 😂. It’s like saying that a nice ribeye steak smells beefy.
Horses for courses. Some wild caught salmon is very good, like Tasmanian pink salmon, but most we had nowadays is farmed salmon. Personally I like mackarel more than any salmon.
As Indonesian, we always eat that fish almost everyday because that fish is the easiest to find and catch. And also there's a scientific proof that wild caught mackerel gave higher omega than farmed salmon 😊
I hate it when people call some fish "trash fish". Just because they don't eat it doesn't mean it's trash. Maybe if they weren't or whoever is cooking it for them wasn't trash cooks.
Here in Hawaiʻi we call it Saba…and it’s one of the most delicious fishes you can eat! It’s so oily that you don’t even need to put oil or butter in your pan…and I just put a little garlic salt on it and it’s good to go. I’ve never heard anyone call it a trash fish…it’s popular all over Europe and Asia. The funny thing is that here in Hawaiʻi, the fish that locals REFUSE to eat is a fish that so many mainlanders love to eat! The number one trash fish in Hawai’i is the tilapia…local people wouldn’t eat that if it was free. LOL.
They are quite right about tilapia, it basically lives in dirty water and eats almost everything, it might be diet friendly with not that much bones but that's all nice things about that fish...
I've had people act like its trash fish until I tell them how I make it and then they say it sounds good Gutted, baked whole with the stomach cavity packed with citrus slices and thyme and rosemary. Cooked elevated on more slices of citrus(any works but I mainly use grapefruit or lemon) Also helps get a full sabiki if you bounce it as you reel it
The America one was definitely racist andI’ve seen videos where there are explicitly racist comments saying stuff like “only Asians would eat this” “trash fish unless you’re a (ethnic group” I feel like fishing my be a group with a lot of pretentious people. If I saw a food I don’t like being used in cooking my first thought would be “they probably know how to make it taste good” not “trash fish”
@@hhh1234hyah, most fishers I've met were dicks, I see people eat foods I hate, i dont think "well, your fuckin weird." As a LOT of fishers do, I hate oysters, and green onion, I dont judge people who like them
Oh boy where I live on the Swedish West Coast mackerel is a delicious delicacy so much so the people have parties when the first mackerel of the year gets caught
I thought it was one of the best fish I have eaten. Smoked is my favorite, but other ways are fine too. Good food has good flavor, and mackerel just tastes good!
In the UK mackerel is tasty in the summer, hands down it's packed with omega 3 fatty acids and high protein, hence why bigger fish eat it, tonnes of protein😎👍
Absolutely love mackerel its delicious. We used to catch them as kids in Nova Scotia, would bring then home to dad. He would simply flour season and pan fry them. Little lemon on top and what a scoff i tells ya.
I'm from Australia an i love Spanish Mackeral. You have to try Barra or Barramundi fish. After living and eatin it 24/7 the mackeral tastes like heaven
In Maryland in spring people used go to O.C. MD and take a headboat off shore . No limit and plenty of mackerel. I only see them caught up in N.J. upward. Even from piers in the lower Hudson river.
Before Sabiki rigs we would hang 5 small gold Aberdeen hooks on a leader and cut a ½ inch piece of scrap phone line insulation at an angle to slip over the hook as a lure. I would get the old phone wire for free from phone company techs. My buddy and I would catch a 5 gal pail full and split it when we got home. They would be smoked, pickled, pickled with sour cream or fried and pickled(German style marinated fried herring).
i dont know why people get mad about what type of fish others eat its a personal preferance and you shouldnt go out of your way to annoy others if they dont share the same view
I have very vivid memories of my father and k going out in October into Skagerrak fishing after cod (we usually have a lot of success using mackerel lures for that) trouble was it was impossible to get down to the cod as wherever we went there was a 15 meter later of mackerel just below the surface which would take our lures before they could ever get down below them.
in SoCal fishing for mackerel is an everyday thing, you can go to the piers every hour of the day and there will be somebody fishing for mackerel or waiting for the pier to open so they can fish for mackerel
Extremely strong/fishy and oily. They literally box these things up and sell them as bait more than sold as table fare.....never eat the bait .... and its not just a "mackerel" there are many different mackerels....this is a atlantic mackerel or northern mackerel also called a boston mackerel. You use them to catch fish that are actually edible.
Here people always mistaken mackerels for salmon. And this fish is what we mostly eat if we have "seafood/fish meal" Personally I like to eat it like this: Gutted the fish, cut in half, clean the fish, marinate with smearing chili powder, black pepper, white pepper,salt all over the fish. Take nonstick pan oil, wait until hot, grill the fish with the pan with lid. Wait until cook don't forget to flip the fish. For sauce: Take ½ cup sweet soy sauce, 3 pieces of rice chilli, black pepper, 3tb light soy sauce, white pepper and then blend together.. Try it I promise you won't regret it..😂😂 pls reply if anyone tried this recipe 🤭
Not sure if these are in America but in Australia we have many different kinds of mackerel and we have one called a Spanish mackerel and they can get really big and are one of the tastiest fish in Australia
Yeah.. unfortunately, my Filipino grandfather and the fam refuse that kind of fish. I live in SD, and I remember one day we caught 50 of those off of OB pier
In Ireland I fish for Mackerel every year. They are really good sport on a light rod & and reel. I use fathers Rig and sandeel, maybe 5. Hooks means I can have 5 Mackerel on one cast. "Oh, they are really good eating too". .
In FL we locals eat mullet, people from out of state seem shocked because they consider it to be bait/trash fish. It's not an American thing as much as it's an inland transplant thing. People that have always lived on the water know that it's not s trash fish if it's in the cooler. Meanwhile, some dudes from Ohio come down and see the ocean for the first time and are disgusted to find that their catch doesn't taste like fillet o fish.
Rub curry paste inside and out side the mackerel, lay on 1cm cubed potatoes. Roast in the oven. Or fillet and put them in teriyaki marinade to grill on the BBQ.
I’ve never heard someone call a mackerel a trash fish tbh, great eating fish
Me either....
Me too! These snobbish, uptight, ninnies don’t know what their talking about. They see an inshore fish and automatically think, “EUGH! Peasant food!”
Yeah me neither. It's popular in the UK
Ya mackerel is delicious, and various preparations including sashimi. Big in Japan 🗾
king mackerel is very ehhh though
I swear Americans call almost every fish trash
For real though
Sees a 20 pound bluefin tuna "nahh man that's trash fish, taste like shit"
How many Americans have you interviewed...BS

They call mackerel a trash fish then they eat cheese out of a spray can 🤣
In my experience, if someone called it trash fish, they clearly don't know how to prepare and cook it
Setuju bang
As a Jamaican this is life! Mackerel is a daily staple with 1000 ways to make it! My favorite is rundung(cooked with coconut milk!)❤
I am Irish we are the same brother we love Mackerel.
As a former inmate Mackerel is a delicacy. In the pouch not the can
@@fradrake11that’s a sister…
in malaysia we call it "gulai"
Yessss esp salt mackerel n ackeee
Mackerel tastes great grilled whole. Super popular as a frying fish in Asia.
Asians eat anything 😂

Look it up on you tube
Great food fish. Hot smoked, cold smoked, pickled, barbecued, baked, fried. very good eating and rich in omega oils... hardly a trash fish.
In Europe this fish is highly appreciated.
No one would think of calling it "Trash Fish."

mackerel probably my favorite fatty fish to eat tbh tastes better than salmon
Then youve never had a freshly caught upstate NY salmon
Definitely not I live in the UK 😅@@mattburke9554

grilled saba or even raw is literally my favorite fish of all time, people are missing out
Yes! In Denmark the mackerel is delicious if you get the right ones. Best ones are the mackerel in tomato sauce
A good ole Nova Scotia classic right there, awesome breakfast fish; combine it with some avocado toast, beans and egg and you’re set!
you guys kidding? this fish is fucking delicious

Sounds good, I cook them with a Portuguese recipe, with onion, chorizo sausage, crushed pepper sauce and wine. People just can’t cook.
@@Keith-jp6jw ill have to give that a try! Got some vacuum packed in the freezer that this sounds perfect for
Cebolada is the recipe.
I personally eat it at least twice a month but of course in affordable large size can from the supermarket
Also if you pick the bones off and add some spices to the meat and mix it all with some bread crumbs you can make a pretty good mackerel burger patty
Why are some of those comments giving off racist vibes. We're talking about fish, man.

The fish is far from stinky and smelly especially when it's fresh. First class food you have right there 👍🏼🤙🏼

In the UK, they say "Not feeling well, have a mackerel."
As an american, I've never heard anyone call mackerel "trash fish"
there’s an eastern european dish called Skumbria and it’s basically just a whole smoked mackerel and it’s delicious.
Fresh mackerel is out of this world!
Lmao, one of those commenters really said he was too American to eat mackerel 😂
Mackerel isn’t a bad fish and is often consumed in Japan with sushi
Y ISN'T THIS VIRAL YET?
try it grilled it will change your life one of my favorite fish to catch & eat.
>"Trash Fish"
>one of the most commonly eaten fish in the world
If someone called a fish trash it tells us more about the cooking skill of said person than it is about the fish 😂
In Australia we call it slimy mackerel
I thought it was one of the best fish I have eaten. Smoked is my favorite, but other ways are fine too. Good food has good flavor, and mackerel just tastes good!
Thank you for educating me , I never seen how they look or what is used to bait them

Mackerel are absolutely perfect for smoking. Their oiliness makes them incredibly rich once salted and smoked.

People love mackerel so much, they call it holy
I want to mackerel 🤤🤤🤤 It’s one of the fishes I want to try. Sadly I haven’t seen any of the stores where I live sell it 😭
As an American, this video is making me hungry
types of fishing tons of variety never know what’s coming also love the interaction through fans with these and the comments popping up in vids.
I'm from Australia an i love Spanish Mackeral. You have to try Barra or Barramundi fish. After living and eatin it 24/7 the mackeral tastes like heaven
I absolutely love them, their not the best eating fish but it depends on your recipe. I prefer flounder but I'll never turn it down.

That fish is one of my favorites next to cod fish😅
Anything like feathers worj good, bigger hooks and red work the best
I love the taste it’s somehow similar to a few species of flounder
It's not the fish that's trash. It's the person's cooking skills that's trash.
I really wanna try more types of fish, they look so good!
If someone said the fish is trash, they probably meant their cooking skills.
in scotland makrel is a fish that almost everybody likes
It’s a great day when Tackle2thepeople uploads!
Smoked mackerel is one of my favorite fish!
I love mackerel. Was on spring break in PCB and caught like 6 over 15" and served em up for dinner with my family

Mackerel are one of the best eating fish out there. Smoke mackerel is fantastic cold. Peppered smoked mackerel is a delicacy.
Mackerel has the same nutritional value as a salmon, if not higher. Fry it, grill it, steam it, its a daily staple from where I'm from.
in SoCal fishing for mackerel is an everyday thing, you can go to the piers every hour of the day and there will be somebody fishing for mackerel or waiting for the pier to open so they can fish for mackerel
The fish is a trash fish because it’s fishy and salty.
Also people. Anchovies.
People also think catfish are trash fish but they are an American south staple
People who call mackerel trash fish are the ones who love to eat mackerel bento
mackerel makes for great fish soup, sushi, grilled, or sauteed. honestly ive never seen anyone who likes fish that didnt like mackerel.
Mackerel are soo fun to catch and they taste great. Where I fish there are lots of them and they can get big.
That guy on the second to last comment shown in the video has clearly never been outside the states
In Australia we call them slimmy mackerel or slimmeys
I have no idea what kind of lunatic would call mackerel a trash fish
Love it! I’d eat it every day if I could. My favourite is Mackerel on toast for breakfast!
We call them Opelu here in hawaii. People love eating them, and it's usually $8lb if buying from the store
They look so good iv only caught perch small

Usually I just spin for mackerel with feathers or ribbons on snoods and a weight or larger lure on the end.
The only thing about mackerel is, I understand it goes off really fast so you have to have it fresh.
As an American, we do like mackerels it just the few who don’t that speak up first.
Here in the Netherlands they are very popular. We like to smoke them.
It’s basically just a large sardine and sort of tastes like it too
Me to my fav. I salt it for 30 min dip in white flour
I’d never grocery shop again

Mackerel is INCREDIBLE
People who complain about Macks being a trash fish are just trash cooks.
We used to call the lures lucky Joe's or lightening Joe's... You gotta get the biggest hooks they sell and use big bait for the big greedy mackerel
Yeah.. unfortunately, my Filipino grandfather and the fam refuse that kind of fish. I live in SD, and I remember one day we caught 50 of those off of OB pier

Very common fish around the uk and eaten alot, no one thinks of it as trash fish
Every fall I love to either boil or fry this fish.
Fish is fish, always delightful cooked the right away
My parents eat mackerel everytime😅
Rub curry paste inside and out side the mackerel, lay on 1cm cubed potatoes. Roast in the oven.
Or fillet and put them in teriyaki marinade to grill on the BBQ.
Dude if these fish were in my area I would catch 20 every single day and eat that shit forever
You in florida? Nice haul!
I will only eat them if I caught them less than a couple of hours ago, and they've been kept cold. They're totally different from a fishmonger.
I love this fish. My family eat it by grilling it with sweet chilli paste or green pepper. Good source of omega and protein tho
