What common post-catch error seems to intensify negative opinions against eating amberjack?
Leaving the fish too long on a warm deck
The handling of amberjack immediately following the catch is noted as being extremely critical, perhaps more so than for slower-moving reef fish. If the fish is neglected and left sitting on a warm deck for an extended duration, the quality of the flesh deteriorates rapidly. This rapid quality degradation directly impacts the flavor profile, causing even those who might otherwise enjoy it to develop strong negative opinions, suggesting that many bad experiences stem from poor initial management rather than inherent biological traits of the species.
