Thatcher one Beautiful Fish. How do you prepare it to eat?
Nice fat one! I don't understand the language but can gather the drift of the conversation. :D

I gave that one to one of our friend, she makes nice fish cakes from that type of fish.
Wow! Nice fish! Do you know what the water temperature was when you caught that fish?
hello, 62-64F.
Thanks for sharing.
Nice Fish! ;)

Nice. We don't usually see salmon and yellowtail in the same waters of North America. The salmon are always north in cooler (around 60F) waters, and the yellowtail are south in warmer (around 70F) waters. Interesting that you have them both there at the end of the summer in Vladivostok.
Very nice! I didn't know that yellowtail made it up to the Vladivostok area.
Outstanding! 8)
Thank you for your comments, guys.
The yellowtail started to come in our local waters in large numbers from 2013.
Today, we also fish some small tuna type of fish and, most important, in this year marlin type of fish was spotted by local fishermen.
So, we are very happy to see different fish spicies in our home waters.
Salmon in the winter, Marlin in the summer, that's living!
No-)))
our salmon season lasts from the end of april and up to oktober.
Water temperature now 57-59F and the fish is still in our waters.
Local fishermen have good catches today.
Surprising that they're still around in waters that cool. I'm guessing that you caught Seriola lalandi, which is slightly different from the California yellowtail Seriola dorsalis. That may account for its presence in cooler waters.
Seriola Lalandi which we have in Cape Town are extremely adaptable fish and occur in many oceans of the world. Although they move on if/when the water get colder and go off the bite, they seem to adapt or acclimatise and at some places not more then 50 miles away they are caught in water as cool as 56 degr F. I have caught them in a temperature range of 56 - 73 degr F and here they seem to be happy in 61 degrees F.
I have always believed that they are effected more by sudden temperature changes then by actual ambient temperature.
We have BURI and HIRAMASA-japanise names.
Okay, well according to Wikipedia, those names translate to the Japanese yellowtail Seriola quinqueradiata.
Yes-)
