There are many better tasting fish.
Any amberjack we caught we fed to dogs or hogs.
Are you kidding ?
Are we speaking of great amberjack (Seriola dumerili) ?
In this case please adopt me as dog (it's ok also as pig :grin), here is one of the most appreciated fishes (personally I love AJ).

It tastes good.

Fishing beautiful Destin / Ft Walton Beach area!
different strokes for different folks .... the Japanese love the taste of bonito ... I'd have to be starving to eat a bonito
I'm not saying AJ is inedible ... I just find the flavor of so many other fish to be preferable
BTW about AJ I'm surprised because I was convinced that it was a worldwide very appreciated fish.

To us, the mullet I caught (gigged from the seawall) were for bait only.

My first time I didn't believe it was mullet. I left seabass and seabream for the mullets.

My wife grew up in Seminole/Indian Rocks Beach in the 60's/70's. She said everyone down there smoked mullet and loved it. She gets it at Frenchies whenever we are down there.

The first time I ever ate AJ was on a charter boat. There was an undersized fish that the mate said would not recover so he did a filet and release. Put pieces of AJ on a paper plate, threw some lemon pepper on it, microwaved it, added yellow mustard and white bread. It was excellent.

Dont pay any attention to him, he ain't got a licka sense.
First time for me was at a fishing club social back in 79 or 80. One of the members did a mystery fish and just seasoned and seared it, blackened I guess you would call it. Every single person that tried it loved it. Been eating it ever since.
I seem to remember there is a big difference between east and west coast Florida mullet?

I don't know anything about them things. I steer clear. Wife and her family love them though.

What kind of fish do you like. which fish is more preferable?
AJ and Mullet are both yummy.

I am just here for my amusement.
snapper ... mahi ... grouper ... tuna ... snook ... cobia ...
the amberjack that I tried were pretty large so that may have been why they tasted bad ...
I just prefer the taste and texture of snapper ...
mullet taste like mud to me ... even when they're smoked
If the mullet tasted like mud, then they did not prepare it properly. If you remove the dark lateral strip, you may like mullet. You seem to prefer mild flavor fish. Do you like Mackerel?

I live in TI, a hop skip and a jump from there. Smoked mullet is still very popular. My favorite is a orange smoked mullet. It is goot!!

Grilled with a touch of olive oil and some Cajun seasoning is my favorite way.

I have never targeted Mullet. I have a cousin who does and does a giant fish fry every 4th of July. He fishes the St. Johns river and east coast. He can fry some great mullet. I think he cast nets them.

I tasted many time the mullets, in many Italian areas, but the ones I found really tasty are the Sardinian Ponds' ones (Cabras the more known, but also others).
Others were between pretty disgusting and acceptable.
