    The odds of a mahi in there are a million to one. Jacks are much more common in shallow water and even though your home port is a little far north that's exactly what you found here. I want to know how the hell he got stuck like that

    Jersey would have called it a chinese yellowfin...

    but there is no doubt that is a jack. Look at his tail, see those ridges or I think the term is caudal feduncle. They were hard like bone and kinda sharp, it is a dead giveaway even with the bad picture.

    mike.....howd ya guess

    I would have stuck it in a pot and made fish stew!

    but i agree with you - its a jack, but i think the point that he found so close to home is still pretty cool.

    You Asians should know better - you've gotta dry that fish before you make stew - that way it is a whole lot smellier...

    I mean a more appealing aroma
