I like having a few in the freezer for cut bait. Snapper, grouper and triggers love bonito. I caught a nice red grouper(12#), a week ago on a bonito chunk. Some of the biggest red snapper I caught last year ate pieces of bonito. They freeze better whole IMO, just thaw and fillet leaving the skin on and cut to size depending on the target species.
I've never eaten bonito but I've heard that prepared properly they are quite good.

Take a nice cedar plank and season the bonita filet well.. put the filet on the plank and place in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes and with plenty of tartar sauce, the board will taste just fine.
