Yep. White Croaker. Some call them one and the same, but the picture Ben found looks more like yours.

White Croaker does have a nice fillet, but have been known to have high levels of toxins. They were on the do not eat list decades ago.

Now I know to keep my baits that get lazy. I got a monster saba yesterday, probably 14-15" long, maybe the biggest I have ever caught. Sounds like I cold have turned him into food instead dragging him around on a hook for and hour or 2.
