That's the Skipjack Tuna (Aku) alright, not to be confused with ladyfish / 'skipjack' caught inshore.

In Hawaii we used AKU to live bait for Marlin. Turn them upside down they become docile then run your bridle thru them and let them go. Better than Yellow fin? Not the people I know there but it must be personal taste.
