As long as it was cooled, I agree. We made a rookie mistake trying to have it “fresh” out the water. 80 degree YF is like thick snot



It had been iced down a few hours. You have to just so they clean easier. We had 9 yellowfin that day from about 70-120Lbs. We were worn out but happy. I ate on my portions for quite awhile.

Spinoff question: are supermarket tuna steaks safe to eat with just a quick sear but otherwise rare? If not, where on the Northshore does one buy fresh tuna of sufficient quality?

I don't think someone gave the OP a fresh filet of yellowtail in Louisiana.

Amberjack/Almaco are about as close as you'll get in the gulf to Yellowtail


When fresh, it's as good for sushi and sashimi



All that being said, this is about Yellowfin tuna which is totally different
