Did you bleeding it, gut it and immediately bury it in ice? I've found that if I do that it can last a couple days and taste pretty good on the grill.

Yeah bled him immediately on the water and put on ice, didn’t gut him until I was home.

Problem might have been I had it off ice when preparing and eating for a few hours didn’t put back in the fridge until I realized I wasn’t going to finish it all.

Either that and/ or marinade was meant for sushi, not really an overnight and grill recipe.

Of course now that I've failed Outdoor Chef's Life does a video on how to do seared Bonito sashimi
