I like to have fish three times a week, and I doubt I'd want mackerel all three times, mackerel once a week would be living large. There are some mercury advisories suggesting a max of two meals per month of king mackerel and 4 meals per month of various other saltwater species. Even this would be high living according to my fish preferences. Fortunately, we are able to harvest enough Colorado trout to keep fish on the table with an annual trip to Louisiana to stock up on the saltwater species.
