I'm pretty sure it's an example of a Peprilus Medius, butterfish.

That’s a huge Jack

here are smaller pics of both and I do see why some people I know thought it might be a small Jack but I agree it looks like a butterfish

Butterfish are all over right now. We had a school swim up behind the boat in the Western Long Island Sound yesterday.

Correct, but the appropriate taxonomic writing would be either Abus vigodath or Abus vigodath to account for only the genus being capitalized and the Latin, Greek, or in most of our cases, Pig Latin words.

Have to be editorially correct 😉
