Season for Iceland Atlantic Mackerel is now underway.  Early July productions, the fish are little soft, low fat content and with redfeed.  These usually go for low end markets or are used for Bait.  If you are looking for Bait grade or cheap Atlantic Mackerel, this is the right time to purchase.  After third week of July the fish will be firmer, fat contents will be over 20% and overal quality will be much better.  Prices will also increase during that time.  

If you are looking for higher quality mackerel from Iceland, the timing should be from late July onwards.
