yeah, that's a scad alright, we had lots last year around the same time on a boat trip to the Aran Islands.

It's a scad alright. Mind the spikes on them. Got a good stab when i first handled one. Well done on the new species.

tastes beautiful when grilled or barbecued, we had a couple of guys from Spain on the trip and they were totally excited about them and said they are a so called 'superfood' and very good for you. We hit a massive shoal and this has absolutely made their day

I want one!!

Well you'll have to fish for it cause your not getting any more of my catch!!!!!!!!, Just like what was said to us for the mac remember you wont catch any there..
