James,
I'd use that dictionary if I could work up the smarts to figure out how. Maybe it's more the patience factor, though.
Maybe 'sea snake' for a name instead of mackerel, though. I get images of swinging a mackerel around by it's tail. :{
Mackerel tastes pretty good wrapped in green onions on the grill. Mom used to catch a lot of them when we lived in Florida,
fishing off the St. John's River. My sisters and I used to fill our pockets full of the little fiddler crabs (and sand); I can
still remember her fussing and getting ticked at us for letting them loose in the car and in our house. Those were the days.

I don't know, I like the idea of the mackerel sword myself. Especially
on the barbecue... damn, now I'm getting hungry!
May I recommend a free Japanese dictionary of some sort? Use google to
find Jim Breen's Japanese page. He as plenty of resources there.
