The ones on the top, left, and right are yellowtail, 5 total. Yellow stripe, and yellow tail. The long, thin one is a barracuda. The other 4 are bonito, and they are from the mackerel family.

What is a yellow tail?
It doesn't appear to be Tuna. (I'm familiar with Yellowfin).

Can you eat barracuda?

Slide them on a rail and put coals under them. Thanks for the invitation to come and eat MACS. 😉

Yes the smaller ones. The larger ones can cause ciguaterra poisoning from eating fish that feed on coral. (At least in the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico)

Cooked correctly jacks are very good as long as they're not to big. Pompano is also a member of the jack family. Yellowtail have an oily white flesh. They are excellent grilled or broiled.

I find that oily flesh so daunting to work with... I'll cook up some killer rock cod and ling, but when i cook that oily stuff, it just turns out more oily...

That was on a charter boat, not mine. Had it been on my boat... limit is 10 fish per angler, 5 of any one species. I was able to keep fishing because the charters keep going until the BOAT has its limit. Some folks didn't quite catch their limits and I made up the difference. 😁

Funny you should say that. My wife likes the bonito and hates catfish. All those fish are for her and her friends, so they will get eaten. The fillets in the blue bag are for me.

No dodo's. Water isn't quite warm enough for them around the Coronados. They're still getting them on the multi-day trips that go farther south.

When I hit 5 yellowtail, I told the deckhand I was at my limit. He said, "Keep catching them..."
