Like a mackerel

[neil]

Again, from Loren D, Estleman, ŒStress¹, 1996 [Robert Hale, London, 1997,
54]:

"I dated an erotic dancer from the Pussycat that could fold both feet behind
her neck."

"She any good?" Kubiceck asked.

"Like a fucking mackerel."

Can someone elucidate that last comment for me?
