The Missus caught this Stripey at Tantabiddi yesterday and decided to keep it for dinner.
Cut a gill to bleed it, left it in the motor well under a wet towel for about 15 mins then put it on the ice bricks in the esky.
Went straight in and back to Exe.
We were'nt planning to keep anything so did'nt have ice slurry in the Madfish bag.
Had some as sashimi while watching the footy and a pan seared steak with salad for dinner, delicious.
Both woke up at midnight feeing hot and flushed (not in a good way). Both ends working overtime - could use this as a colonoscopy prep.
We were going to go to the Muirons and Peak island today : best forecast since we've been here, but feeling pretty ordinary.
Was'nt the best fish storage but certainly not the worst either. I suspect that the little beggars fight that hard that they get hot and the muscle breaks down after death releasing histamine.
Any one else had this?

In tuna with your body?
Sounds like you kept it fine to me , fish dont go off that quick , we reg leave them to bleed out in seawater for 10 mins then into esky.
Could have been anything , lunch? ,,, salad,,,,,, even water ,,, I have felt sick after drinking water in other towns or states, let alone the
stale , dead horrid liquid that comes outa taps in the U.K !!! .

A couple of years ago at Exy
A couple of years ago at Exy i was cleaning a Big Eye tuna and was advised by another bloke at the cleaning table that the new norm for preparing sushimi was to wrap the fillet in papertowel, then glad wrap and then freeze it. Then let it thaw out in the fridge before slicing and eating. According to him, this process killed any parasites that may be in the fish. The bloke was an ex airforce pilot in the Singapore Airforce and seemed to know what he was talking about. I have prepped all my sushimi this way ever since.
No idea if what you suffered was from a parasite, but maybe food for though.
