Skipjack Tuna vs Bonito - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Thanks guys for all the replies and information. The more I think back on the catch, I believe it to be a Skipjack considering color and markings, but only one way to verify.... catch another!
I also appreciate the feedback on taste. I know one man's trash is another man's treasure. (IE Shovelnose) I've only had bonito sashimi and enjoyed it, but might have to harvest one and play around with different cooking methods.

Paging Dr. Yanni.
