Restaurants must get it somewhere? I have had yellowfin steaks in Wellington.
What is albacore or skipjack like as sashimi? I can catch plenty of that myself.

I can personally vouch that the mahi mahi and yellowfin is very good. Yum, yum, yumQuote:

For sashimi Albacore is OK, Skipjack not so but Yellowfin IMO is king. Cant say Ive tried Bluefin though, and it fetches high prices on the japanese market so must be the business.
Mahi Mahi is called Dolphin in the States. Took a few kiwis aback when the locals mention how nice dolphin was to eat. Also called Dorado (pretty sure dorado is gold in spanish). Really beautiful fish.
I once cut off a submarine at the entrance to Port Everglades bringing in a big bull Mahimahi. Stupid thing surfaced about 500m behind us. Be fucked if I was giving up without bringing the fish in.
Sorry I meant to say mahi mahi in butter on the bbq.mmmm

Does the Mahi Mahi make good sashimi? Or is it just a cooking fish?
Very good, I am surprised a man of your travels has not had it before in a galley somewhere!!!!!!Quote:

You should come up for a look Mikee? Gunna annoy the shit out of Sneeze and shoot the shit out of all his steel as well. Bout time some of his plates seen a bullet:D
Based on today's efforts you would be in good company, Myself, Brother and Father were all out fished by my wife (again) but it was a nice day especially since my dad had not had a very good year health-wise.Quote:

I reckon shooting them, is better than having his wife throwing them at him:thumbsup:
Or washing them!!Quote:
