I was surprised by this little fella just 100 yards off the Hillsboro Light, FL in only 40 ft of water!

Hate to break it to you brother, but that is a Bonito aka False Albacore.

They DO put up a good fight though, don't they?

Sorry bro I thott it was a Skip Jack Tuna - back in my daze in Gods Zone (NZed) we used Skippies as bait for snapper - they look similar - I was con-fuzed!

This little guy was caught on 7 lb test with no leader - good fun!
