Mackerel

Mackerel are running in Salem Sound.   Brendt and Ryan hit them big on Tinker's Buoy as they fished for live bait.

When I was a kid, we used to eat them.  They are strong tasting,  dark and oily, but if you like fish, still good.  And highly nutritious... twice as much Omega3 oil as salmon.

They also put up a nice fight for a small fish and are a lot of fun to land with light tackle.  Good lobster trap bait too.
