Cleaned it on the bank, and fried it in a little saved bacon fat.
Or the Yellowtail tuna sashimi... On an overnight fishing boat out of San Diego. As the deckhand cleaned and filleted our catch, he'd flip slices to us. There is the reason for wasabi in the tube!
I second this.
Thanks to "health regulations" fresh fish in the US isn't really fresh unless it's illegal.

And rare is the sushi restaurant that tells customers upfront that they may be eating fish that has been in deep freeze for up to two years.
Taste the freshness....
