So true..Born and raised in Hawaii.. We love us some Aku.. Dried/smoked is the most popular... When I was a kid we'd go to fish market and ask for any "aku heads" that were gonna be thrown out.. Sometimes get lucky with free aku bellies too... the heads are awesome bait for when we'd go crabbing and the bellies were cut into strips and used to catch all kinds of reef fish...

Except aku are white skipjack. Those are black skipjack. White skippys are the only one w pronounced black stripes below the lateral line. Black skippys have usu 3 dots just behind the gills on the belly and maybe faded stripes. There is no other fish that looks like a white skipjack.

Any one seen any this year?
I have seen a couple fliers in LJ this year. I was surprised to spook one in Huntington Harbor last week. I also saw a needle fish chasing bait yesterday here.

Pretty sure white skippys =Aku and black skippies =fertilizer/catfood
