The Barred Spanish Mackerel is easy to identify. It is usually the largest of the three closely related species of mackerals that are found in our local markets and it is the only one with vertical bars on the body. They have no scales and underneath their silvery skin is a muscular flesh which is rich in blood vessels as they are strong swimmers and would often speed across the open waters of the oceans and seas. The flesh is meaty and firm, Cooks up smoky white, rich medium fish flavour.
