Many people think of mahimahi as a gamefish, but it is a very good fish for aquaculture.
These fish are about 5 weeks old. Mahimahi can be farmed profitably in tanks, and will probably do well in ocean cages. Because they were fresher and had more fat, they tasted fantastic and my customers loved them. At Pacific Harvest in Kona, Hawaii, we will be producing and raising mahimahi in 2001. Before you jump into mahimahi aquaculture, I suggest you read about the struggles of the pioneers in Mahi Magazine.
