Now, I love me some Skippy... Aku poki is the best! keep it cold, eat it within a day or less and the sashimi is really good. On a PB, the skippy seldom makes it back to shore...on the water snacks! I sometimes soak it in a little orange juice and serve it with a little "Mr. Yoshida's" for dipping...

BUT(!)...not the black skipjack. I hadn't had one before and OMG! Nasty!! Take a big ole bite of Bluefin bloodline and you've pretty much got the same thing.

White skipjack is great, but I put Boners and the Black Skipjack in the "bycatch" category. My cat and Aussie both turned up their noses and went after the yellowtail scraps instead.

That said, both are a riot to catch!!
