Its amazing what a bucket of brine and ice can do in a few hours.
I always thought bonito would be good eating, they are basically a tuna. I know the guys in Florida keep em, but they also keep king mackerel. I have eaten king mackerel and I just do not like em, we had a guy fish with us from New York and he let us keep his red snapper to let him catch and keep each of 'our' king mackerel Whatever floats your boat I guess
