	Mackerel - LoveToKnow 1911
		Mackerel, like all fishes of this family, have a firm flesh; that is, the muscles of the several segments are interlaced, and receive a greater supply of blood-vessels and nerves than in other fishes.
		Mackerel are found in almost all tropical and temperate seas, with the exception of the Atlantic shores of temperate South America.
		The Spanish mackerel is, as the name implies, a native of the seas of southern Europe, but single individuals or small schools frequently reach the shores of Great Britain and of the United States.

	Mackerel
		Mackerel are a swift-moving fish, swimming with very short sidewise movements of the rear part of the body and of the powerful caudal fin.
		Mackerel seen during the warmer months of the year are always swimming, but this rule may not apply in winter, when the water holds more dissolved oxygen because it is colder, and when it is probable that their demand upon it is lower.
		Mackerel, in short, were extremely plentiful in 1885, very scarce in 1910, moderately plentiful in 1916 and 1917, very scarce again in 1921, and they have been moderately plentiful since about 1925, but probably not so plentiful as they were in the 1880's.

		The upper half of the mackerel's body is iridescent blue-green with a vertical fl, wavy band, and the lower half and belly are silvery white.
		Atlantic mackerel average 14-18 inches long and 1-2 1/2 pounds and reach their prime when they are fattest, which is at the end of summer and during the fall.
		The Atlantic mackerel is an oily fish with a high percentage of the heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids.

		It may be told from the true mackerels by its stout form and from the bonitos by the fact that the two dorsal fins are well separated with an area of smooth skin in between.
		The king mackerel – which is the preferred name for the fish that is often called the kingfish – probably spawns through much of the warm part of the year, undoubtedly offshore and quite possibly along the outer reek.
		The young king mackerel enter the bays and are commonly caught by bridge fishermen until they are about one and a half feet in length, At this time they closely resemble the Spanish mackerel and are seldom distinguished by the fishermen.

	Handling and Processing Mackerel
		Mackerel are found in summer throughout the waters of the European continental shelf, continually on the move in search of food; they feed on small fish such as sprats and sand eels, as well as on krill and plankton.
		Mackerel fishing methods have changed dramatically over the past 50 years; before 1939 mackerel were caught mainly in the spring by drift net, an interim occupation for drifters between the winter and summer herring fisheries.
		Once the mackerel shoals were found to remain in Cornish waters throughout the winter, the hand line catch increased considerably in the late 1960s, and, as the market for mackerel improved, trawlers began to engage in mackerel fishing, using both midwater and bottom trawls.

	Mackerel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mackerel is a common name applied to a number of different species of fish, mostly, but not exclusively, from the family Scombridae.
		Common features of mackerels are a slim, cylindrical shape (as opposed to the tunas which are deeper bodied) and numerous finlets on the dorsal and ventral sides behind the dorsal and anal fins.
		For this reason, mackerel is the only fish traditionally sold on a Sunday in London, and is the only common salt-cured sushi.

	Fish - King and Spanish Mackerel
		King mackerel are migratory, in response to water temperature, and prefer temperatures no lower than 68 degrees F. These mackerel appear to spawn over a protracted period, with several peaks.
		These mackerel are found most frequently in water temperatures between 70 and 88 degrees F, and rarely in waters below 64 degrees F. Spanish mackerel is a common visitor to the middle and lower Chesapeake Bay from spring to autumn, sometimes swimming as far north as the mouth of the Patuxent River.
		The Spanish mackerel commercial fishery was born around 1850 along the Long Island and New Jersey coasts, and by the 1870s was well-established in the mid-Atlantic and Chesapeake Bay area.
