The Mackerel (Scomber scombrus Linnaeus) is one of the most important food fishes of the United States. In 1935 the mackerel fishery ranked eighth in volume and seventh in value among the food fisheries of this country. Owing to prevailing methods of handling and shipment, however, considerable difficulty has been experienced in disposing of the entire catch at a profit. Studies of this fishery were conducted as a basis for recommendations leading to increased distribution and popularity of mackerel, and improved handling methods are discussed in this report.
