Is that called a King Mackrel or a Barracuda?

That is a Great Barracuda, the bane of all those fishing in King Mackerel tourneys. In 99' I fished the Greater Jacksonville Kingfish Tournement and two hours into the first day we thought for sure we were in the money. Turned out to be a cuda a little smaller than that. Totally bummed. A king that big is called a smoker and can win you thousands of dollars, a nice sponsership, a new truck and boat all in one shot. Too bad its not a king.

I saw one probably that big bite a small shark (probably 2 1/2') in half one day on a party boat out of Jacksonville, Florida.

| Deserving of a mount
I'd kill that pig and have it mounted. What a cool mount that would be. Beautiful fish IMO. Deserves to be on a wall above a fireplace.

What is a false albie, a skipjack? Bonito? Or some other type of tuna?
