Fantastic fishing!! Great to see that you are dispatching them as you go!! Well done to you!! From New Zealand.

In Hawaii we call that Akule ( big eye scad). Great for frying or great for drying in a dry box. One of the best eating fisheshere in Hawaii

Your faces when you took the first bite priceless lol x

Put green onion thinly sliced with sashimi HM and lemon. Rice on the side is the only way land locked Indiana gets this fish. Typically we only see them in early spring and a early to late fall. I think we get them in season with Japans timing. The other option is sashimi HM ( smacked in lemon juice and or vintages ) then put them in a bowl and add very thin red onion or shallots into a few dollops of sour cream. If you have a Japanese Mayo you can add like a table spoon max to the sour cream. For all add salt, pepper, chili oil and garlic as you like. The onions and acid are not optional. The sour cream one will last a week or more in the fridge due to the acid applied direct to the flesh. Enjoy !

A favourite fish in Asia, cooked in so many ways depending on which cuisine - grilled, fried, sashimi/sushi and you can stuff pureed peppers /cilantro in the stomach cavity or in between cuts on body for extra ‘punch’ of flavours! Simple way to cook without wasting so much meat, and let it flavour in it’s own oils (it’s one of the oiliest fish) is to remove the gills & guts, score two/three cuts across the body (top fin to belly), leave head & skin on, pat dry, season with salt & pepper - fry it up. You can eat it with or without the skin (crispy skin tastes great), dip fish meat in soy or chilli sauce. The meat above the head is tender, and if the head has been fried crispy enuf, it’s good to just crunch on the bony bits 😊 I am aghast tt it’s used as bait (especially those larger than 20cm) - it costs £12 to £13 per kilo here at the supermarket!! 😭😊

The best fishing show on television by a street. Thanks

🤣🤣 Horse Mackerel is as popular as sardines back home (Portugal) but please please that fish preped whole salt and straight on the bbq... Do it, you'll love it

Always a good content , great job what a pleasure. Horse mackerel are really good to make some sushy, yummy , to be honnest it's perfect, just freeze the chair some minutes and put one the rice, with soja sauce. Bon appétit et merci à vous les gars .

LMFAO.Sam was the one hundred fish.He caught himself. Thank you for the Adventure.. it was very entertaining. Much Love and Happy Days ❤️

Where you are looks just like née zealand! We used to fish for bream but found the mackerel are great to eat and smoke well too. Enjoy.

That was really cool.That sure looked like the Smelt I catch out of Lake Michigan, but it's hard to tell.Love to watch you and Sam catch loads of fish.It's really nice of you give us a still for a snapshot.

Hello, here we love horse mackerel, small ones fried, the bigger ones are great grilled on fire, the whole one with guts and everything, to not get very dry, when they are full of small shrimp they taste great, in Nazaré (land of Giant waves) fisherman dry the horse mackerel on sun for some days in the beach on nets and then eat it boiled. In Portugal the small ones fried are called "jaquinzinhos" and its a very tradicional dish with tomatoe rice its delicious even tourists loves it. Happy fishing for all 😃

Smash I hope you start getting more and more people watching from Colorado. I’m gonna keep sharing, my friends like your vids.

Great to see Sam out for a session and a catch and cook!!

hey smash love the vids try to marinate in garlic, pepper and salt then dust them in corn meal and deep fried them whole, (without the guts) serve with cooked potatoes in salted water and make a simple salsa verde with parsley (minced) onion (minced) olive oil salt pepper and a drizzle of lemon juice the real man will eat the crispy head of one of those fishes ;) hope you enjoy and man up for the task ;)

Good video guys These fishes are called jureles in Spain are like mackerels a little softer flavour bit very good. We eat them fried.

lovely fish to eat, love night fishing for scad. Get some decent sized ones round here, great ray bait too 👍

hell yeah what a cracking little session decent bait for free and a new flavour sensation ☺and i thought my chum was flash with a few tins of cat food in it i have never had lobster in my chum you are a flash smash . take care dude tight lines and have fun 👍

Your videos are good man i would love to see you collab with other famous outdoor youtubers...

I know the Japanese love horse mackerel, and eat them for sushi also.

Por them on the fry pan with pouder salt pepar end same Lemon and they get hummy

niceone guys great couple of squid and the scad looked real tasty

Really glad that you enjoyed the horse mackerel, I really like them, I just grill mine whole. Another great video, thanks for sharing it with us.

In Japan horse mackerel are called Aji. In restaurants they are in tanks and they pull them out live and fillet for sashimi (raw, thinly sliced). We then fry the bones so they are very crispy. Great with a cold beer. We grill them too.

Mackerel is my favorite Sashimi when I got for sushi, obviously the ones your guys caught were not the same but I imagine that was a great meal

Smash I’m really enjoying these premieres. What a great way for you to engage your audience and get live feed back. Jess says with the new bundle of joy coming you need to name the boat “Smash Daddy”😂😂😂😂👍🇨🇦

Excellent 👌 footage was brilliant thanks for the show Smash and Sam .

Good evening to you both from New Zealand.💯👍💯💯👋

Just watched the end, BINGO! Like bream but a bit more savoury and yummy. Love it, get em down ya ✌️

I love it when you discover something new ! Everything old is new again

Great Video! Here in Spain it's quite common to eat horse mackerel (called Jurel in Spanish). They're often at the fish counter in the grocery store and on menus in fish restaurants. Like you said, it's a lot like bream. Great for ceviche too!

Great! ...and it`s no thrash fish at all,they made great cans of horse mackerell in Spain for years...;) Change your taste a little bit...;)

Grew up catching these is Hawaii-called them Akule there. Delicious fish and fun catching them with lighted bobbers. Always big numbers. Love this channel and y’all’s personalities!

There is nothing better than making memories with your best friend especially when fishing 🎣🎣 😉🎣 and catching fish 🐟🐟🐟 and to find out your bait fish that your catching tastes better than the prize fish you catch haha . I bet from now on you will be bringing that fish home for supper 😜🙂 and cook some for your father and see what he says

I have eaten them in Bulgaria and when I told them that in England they are only used as bait in the pots they thought we were crazy. Great video guys!

In portugal we eat them a lot!! search for portuguese horse mackerel recipes and try one!

Awsome nights fishing slow retrieve once u got first bite and the rest want what's left Mackrell are exactly the same lol I don't think yous put on enoff chilly sauce llf Looked a great scran 👍👍👍😜🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🦕🙂🤞✌

here in New Zealand we called it yellow tail and heaps of them here..cheers

In Queensland Australia we call them Yellow Tail. Great bait

Great video as usual jay, good to see the squid 🦑 coming back, enjoyed that pal

Cracking vid boys. 100 fish from the lighthouse is bloody good going! 🎣 🔥 Nice to see some squid caught too. We had cuttlefish off the boat this week too. The Portuguese like horse mackerel, not as popular with the locals. Nice work 👍

hye im from Malaysia. already subscribed your channel about 2 years already.. that fish you caught is yellowtail scad.. in Malaysia we call ikan selar kuning.. is good when you fried it up..

Sam always looks unsure 😂😂😂😂😂awesome vid lads 💎💎💎

2 really great down to earth lads, you make amazing content and i like how the videos are informative like names of fish etc keep it up mate 👍

That cook up is making me hungry here in Canada. Glad to see it made it to you and agrees with you. Cheers, 👍

It's not a smash fishing vid without sweet chili sauce! Thanks for the Content guys 👍

A previous trash / bait fish turns out to be a new fave.....Sam " I want another one!! "

We also deep fry here in New Zealand and sashimi them too!

I’m from Australia we call them yellow tail here great eating fish and a great bait

my dad loves horse mackerel, his favorite way is freshly caught fried in butter(sometimes he will use drippings) and garlic. not overly healthy but delicious.

I use the same coating , tasty !! Can you get" Old Bay" there ? Amazing seasoning for shellfish !!!!

That was a cracking session at the lighthouse mate, I love scad, very tasty but a pain to prepare 👍👍

This is fun! Good job guys!

Love your videos! Even though I'm vegetarian, I still love you guys so much :) And everything you cook up looks amazing! :)

Fish fingers!!! So cool!

Lookin good guys 👍 you've made me hungry need to eat now! Lol 😅🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Great session mate very entertaining. Sam and yourself make the perfect team. The horse mackerel look very meaty. Think they would go well deep fried in batter then dip in sweet chilli dip.

One of my Favourite fish to eat Good job

Brilliant outing bro everyday is a learning day I knew a old lady that absolutely loved scad

if im not wrong, here in the Philippines we called it GALUNGGONG and its quite expensive almost 4USD for 1kilogram the Minumum wage here at some major cities is only 12USD for 8hours of work so you'll get the idea im always watching you :) hoping one day i can experience foraging or maybe fishing on a boat . im currently working as a security guard earning 10dollars for 12hours of work watching you is my stress reliever keep those videos coming ! HAHA maybe one day i can finally taste lobster . GodBless

Live and learn,, you can Sautee and pack in tacos,,, it reminds me of baby tilapia,,, awesome your finally eating,,, great to see🎩☝️🤚🦜🕷

Thats a very tasty fish

Another smashing video guys well done, I googled the batter you used as it looks good:- "Canada's first choice in fish seasoning, Fish Crisp is a lightly seasoned coating designed to form a bond with the fish to resist oil absorption and create a firm fried texture" It's not cheap either about £13 a bag

good for fish spring roll and good for frying

Well Jay another great video did not know you got horse mackerel don’t think I have even seen them till I watched ‘this glad you got a lot of bait saves on buying it till the next one take care

Another great video you guys 😁👍

Great video! Thank you.

Never eaten the squid or the fish but I can imagine how it tastes by watching you hell yeah

That looked extremely delicious 😋 I imagine it really tasted delicious 🙏

Horse mackarel are really good eaten breaded fried and sushi. Just have to de-bone them with tweezers. Very popular in Japan Delicious as well. Japanese call them Aji

Lovely catch and cook mate! was a very interesting cook up 👌

I love eat scad he have a bit more bones but it is delicious he have mix taste sardin and mackerel he is mixed between jack and mackerel in India it lots 👌😊😊

Craig Rivers, Rivers End Outdoors, Good international video!

what a nite brilliant ive never tried horse mackerel going to give them a go now

it's a smelt nice 1 boys

Great cook up, heavy on the chilli sauce

Every market in Japan has them for sale. One of the more popular fishes in Japan.

My absolute favorite sashimi! Aji !

As always im starving now lol. We dont get horse mackerel unless we go out on the boat . never off the pier .

What...we use "Cozy Kitten" cat food for chum and clean the shells at the dinner table. We would eat the shells if we could chew 'em.

Awesome session

That looks really tasty lads. If you haven't tried it before a 50/50 mix of flour and curry powder( or Cajun spice) is really good with mackerel and probably scad too. Time for me to buy some squid jigs!😁

Japanese eat aji (horse mackerel) a lot. They are excellent salted, butterflied, and grilled. Typically they are served this way for breakfast with a bowl of rice, miso soup, and pickles.

Congratulations!!

They taste really good mate nice when fry

Always a treat your vids mate =)

Watching this while eating my noodles so it taste better 🤭

Love the comment “we’re onto something there m8 “ 🤣🤣🤣 great vid Jay 👍

Here in the Philippines we call Big Eyed Scad as "Matambaka or Matangbaka" which translates to "Cow eyes or oxed eye". I personally love it because it's super cheap and neutral tasting.

Well done mate's!

Never knew you could catch big squid like those over here

I use horse mackerel for deadbait on pikefishing in the autumn / winter period. never thought about eating it. if they are like normal mackerel, they should be good smoked or grilled on the bbq as well then?

A great video mate 👍👍

Great sesh lads! Lots of fun. What are you and Sam planning for Halloween?

the mackerel is good if you fry them whole with salt and pepper

im using it into salad cucumber tomatoes and lettuce mayo and lemon

hey!! here in portugal we actualy use a fresh cough mackerel as a bait ! xD and the big ones we grill it on the barbacue with only salt

Looks like a sand smelt to me. Great fishing lads loads of fun.

Heck of a night Guys, y’all killed them!🤙

That first bite and your face 😱
