Identification Most important of the differences, anatomically, is the fact that the hardhead has a well developed swim bladder attached with the esophagus , which the true mackerels in the Scomber genus lack. But it is not necessary to open the fish to identify it for there is a characteristic color difference between them, the Atlantic being silvery sided below the mid line, whereas the lower part of the sides of the hardhead otherwise colored somewhat like the Atlantic are mottled with small dusky blotches, and the chub has a larger eye than the Atlantic. Less obvious differences are that the dorsal fin s are closer together in the chub and that there are only 9 or 10 spines in its first dorsal fin instead of 11 or more, which is the usual count in the Atlantic mackerel. In most species the mackerel is known to travel in large schools. Habits Chub mackerel school like Atlantic mackerel, and their feeding habits are much the same, eating the same species of pelagic crustacean s and Sagittae that the mackerel had taken at the same time and place, while specimens taken at Woods Hole had dieted chiefly on copepod s, to a less extent on amphipod s, salp s, appendicularians , and young herring .

In Japanese, it is known as goma saba sesame mackerel . Its length is between 30 and 65 cm 12 and 25 in , and weight over a kilogram 2 lbs . Fishing Although at times flighty and difficult to catch particularly when in estuaries and harbours, the Blue mackerel is known as a voracious and indiscriminate feeder, they will devour microscopic plankton and krill, live anchovy, engulf dead cut bait, and strike readily on lures and other flies. When schooled and in a feeding frenzy, they will strike at non food items such as cigarette butts and even bare hooks. While relatively small in size, pound for pound mackerel score high for their fighting ability. The Pacific Blue mackerel whilst easy to fillet and skin can be difficult to debone and care must be taken not to damage the soft flesh, as a result it is known to be finicky to clean, dress, and prepare for consumption. In light of this simply taking fillets from the body and cooking with the skin and small bones on can be the best method for making them into a very tasty meal. As food While Mackerel are often used as sushi Saba , they are a strong tasting meat which is best for consumption if smoked, barbecued, or boiled. References ITIS id 172415 ... more details
