I am guessing this is a Skate. Anyone have any ideas on what kind?

I remember my first one when I was a teenager at the Fish Pass. Pretty good jolt. About like a spark plug.

I remember a story about Byron taking one of off BJ's hook and getting shocked. He thought it was only good for one jolt before it had to "recharge". It hit him a second time and he said it was just like getting hit from a spark plug wire. Very Happy
