skipjack story
I had a tussle with a 9 pound Skipjack on an ultra light spinning outfit (Penn 420) and 6 lb fireline. I was in NJ, in 35 ft near the beach, sight casting to what I thought were false albies (bonita in FL?). Damn near spooled me, went around the boat 7 times. Got it in, snapped a photo, weighed it and let it go.
Showed my brother in FL the pic years later he said "That's a skipjack, did you eat it? Theyr great" I have since caught plenty of false albies but nary a one skipjack
