Tuna id

 Hi guys, here is a tuna we caught last week down the bottom of Exmouth gulf in about 2.5m of water. The photo isn't that great, but it has pointed teeth, spots on the top half, stripes on the bottom half, and long tassels from he dorsal fin. It was only about 300mm long.... An id would be great! Thanks Drew
