If you're catching the bluefish yourself, and clean and put it on ice
right away, try bluefish sushi or sashimi.

Bluefish .25"*1"*3", add a couple of pieces of chopped scallions, eat
with regular soy sauce or my favorite ginger soy sauce(leave 3 or 4
pieces of sliced ginger soaking in soy sauce for approx 5 mins).

The first time I tried this at the Shinobu in Matawan, the chef gave it
to me as a blind taste test. I loved it and only then did he tell me it
was bluefish.

As a general tip on eating bluefish, to obviate the oiliness try
serving a tart sauce with it, gooseberry, kiwi, rhubarb etc.
