Fish or Mahi Mahi (Coryphaenidae hippurus) Photographs
and Information
|
Mahi-mahi are highly
sought for sport fishing and commercial purposes. Sport
fishermen seek mahi-mahi due to their beauty, size, food
quality,
and healthy population. Mahi-mahi can be found in
Australia, the Caribbean Sea, on the west coast of North
and South America, the pacific coast of Costa Rica, the Gulf of
Mexico, Southeast Asia, Hawaiʻi and many other places worldwide.
They are taken on lures and live baits, and are usually found around floating objects
such as wood, seaweed, fish buoys
at sea. Frigate bird diving can also be an indication of the presence of
Dolphinfish Mahi Mahi when there is debris in the water.
Watch for flying fish. These fish are a favourite meal for
mahi-mahi.
Mahi-mahi are carnivorous,
feeding on flying fish, crabs, squid, mackerel, and other small
fish. They have also been known to eat zooplankton, squid, and
crustaceans.
Thirty- to 50-pound gear
is more than adequate for trolling for mahi-mahi. Fly-casters
may especially seek frigatebirds to find big mahi-mahis and then
use a bait-and-switch technique. Ballyhoo or a net full
of live sardines tossed into the water can excite the mahi-mahis
into a feeding frenzy. Hook-less teaser lures can have the same
effect. After tossing the teasers or live chum, fishermen throw
the fly to the feeding mahi-mahi. Once on a line, mahi-mahi are
fast, flashy and acrobatic, with beautiful blue, yellow, green
and even red dots of colour.
Sport catches average 7 to
13 kg (15 to 25 pounds). Though they can grow to be up to 45 kg
(90 pounds) any Mahi-mahi over 40 pounds is exceptional.

Cooking
Mahi Mahi:

Mahi Mahi, Dolphin Fish
Fillet
Dolphinfish are excellent eating table fish.
Grilled, blackened, or baked are the most common ways to prepare
Mahi fish. Dolphin is low in saturated fat and is a good source
of vitamin B12, phosphorus, and potassium and a very good source
of protein, niacin, vitamin B6, and selenium.
Mahi Mahi offers a tender
but firm flesh with a large moist flake and a sweet yet slightly
strong flavour. The meat is smooth and firm with a pink to
creamy white appearance. Typically, there is a small bloodline
along the center of the fillet that is a slightly darker tint
than the meat.
Well-wrapped Mahi Mahi can
be frozen up to two months in a refrigerator freezer, and three
to four months in a deep-freeze.

Commercial Fishing for
Mahi Mahi, Dolphinfish, Dolphin Fish, Dorado,
(Coryphaenidae hippurus):
Although not related to dolphins, Mahi Mahi (Coryphaena
hippurus) was originally marketed under the name “Dolphin Fish.”
The name caused wide-spread consumer concern, so the “Dolphin
Fish” was renamed Mahi Mahi and consumer acceptance and
commercial sales began to increase.
Most Mahi Mahi comes from commercial wild
marine fisheries caught by trolling, and to a lesser extent by
pole and line.
