<< they certainly would not make aquarium pets. >>
Actually they don't do too bad, they love to jump and as they get bigger they
become very messy. they school together nicely and make a nice moving
display. As for eating them, I've never liked them, way too strong. when they
school inshore you can smell them when the wind blows onshore. We get huge
schools miles long and hundreds of yards wide that migrate south in the fall.
They also come into freshwater, especially when they are small. I've only
been able to ship very small ones in the spring.
