Skipjack tuna can at times be very
exciting. I have seen times when 15 pounders were around and would slam a spoon or feather
trolled around a wreck, bass pot flag or pod of bait. These larger fish were inside the 20
fathom line! More often, we have caught smaller fish in areas ranging from 15 miles off
the beach out to 30 fathoms. I usually don't complain when they appear as they make
excellent shark bait, strip baits and good table fare when they are large enough. Baits
cut from the belly seem to often be the hot bait to have for bailing dolphin, triggerfish,
jacks and sea bass.
