Donating to the museum[edit]

In Doubutsu no Mori e+[edit]


In Wild World[edit]

"How do you like to eat your fried horse mackerel? With tartar sauce? Vinegar? ...Ah! Cocktail sauce?! Hoo, I see. Fascinating."

In City Folk[edit]

"Horse mackerel are not at all related to horses... Rather obvious, I should think... It's quite a strange name, given how many fish are related to this one, like yellowtail and amberjack."

In New Leaf[edit]

The plaque by the tank in which the fish is housed says the following:

"With their appealing flavor, horse mackerel have long been a cheap and common food source. However, in certain regions, they have actually been branded as something of a luxury dish. They have tough scales on both sides of their bodies that must be removed before preparing. Though small, they are formidable carnivores. Since they go after bait, they are popular with fishers."

In New Horizons[edit]

When donating to Blathers or selecting "Tell me about this!" in New Horizons, he will provide the following information about the fish:

"Supposedly the horse mackerel derives its name from a-false-myth about its strength as a swimmer. The gist of it is that these fish are so powerful underwater that smaller fish can ride them as steeds! It's absurd, of course. Where would these alleged fish jockeys attach a saddle, much less horseshoes? One does wish that people would construct their legends with a BIT more scientific plausibility!"

It can be found in the large tank in the dark room.

Fishing Tourney[edit]

During a Fishing Tourney, when given a horse mackerel, Chip will say the following dialogue.

In City Folk[edit]

"I could definitely go for a teriyaki-horse-mackerel- salad sandwich. Yup! Num! Nyuuuk nyuk nyuk nyuk!"

In New Leaf[edit]

"Horse mackerel, man, those guys are tasty with a capital MMMM. So I'm just gonna scarf this one down. Totally raw, of course! YUM!"
