Greater amberjack go out of season Saturday in federal waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
did you know that cats won't eat Amberjack? ? ?
Tourists like Amberjack however.... the name does sound cool, and appetizing, until 'you know'
1.38 Million pounds, minus your personal consumption, yes - all served or shipped to tourists who think it sounds like a cool fish - and I agree it does sound cool.
I don't know, I caught one off Hatteras this summer and the fish tacos have been fine.

Amberjacks fine, and its all in the eye of the beholder... I just can't get an awful story I heard about Amberjack from a local fish purveyor out of my head.
