What is it ? Never caught one before ?
I have never caught one of these before. It came up on a hi-low rig along with a BSB. Nice looking fish....
At first I thought it was a Pollock but then no....Pollock don't have that yellowish horizontal line....
Filleted it and it's meat resembled the texture of a Blue
Update: 9/21/16
in looking to see if fish identified as Blue Runner was edible I found a pic of a Greater Amberjack and that is it.... that is a match. It is not a Blue Runner as they have that pic too and it is not the same.

It is a blue runner and they have become somewhat common the last few years in the late summer and early fall across New England.
A quick thought on your post, though. Why keep a fish if you can't ID it?

Does your incessant whining make you feel better? How about you just shut the hell up and suck it up? It's a fishing forum , so please just stop.

in looking to see if my fish identified as Blue Runner was edible I found a picture of a Greater Amberjack and that is a match. It also had a pic of the Blue Runner and it was not the same as mine. I did not know how to add pic here of the Greater Amberjack so I edited my original post above so you can see.

Toby's right, it's a blue runner. I fished for Sailfish out of West Palm one winter and we "kited" blue runners.

My son caught a few last year jigging the dock. I thought it was a greater jack. But RoyL identified it as a blue runner. I'd say I would have to listen to Roy.
