Caught this Fucker in Belize Last Week
 

Was down at my place in Belize last week and decided to go fishing, and i caught this Barracuda. I took me cloase to 15 minutes to pull the bitch in with a light rod.

Are those things good eatin'?

The Locals eat them, i have never tired them myself. They are supposed to be cooked a certain way this time of the year or you will get real sick from eating them. I gave it to one of the guys i know down there along with a bunch of snapper since we caught so many fish that day.

Kudas are mean fuckers..they can bite your flesh from ya body :)

Thats a nice one :thumbsup

nice. gotta watch out for those bastards, they are mean and fiesty.

I hate Barracuda when i was living in Curacao, was pretty tasty white fish actually :thumbsup

If you dont eat them... Why do you catch them?

:2 cents: :winkwink:

:thumbsup

nice catch dude :thumbsup

Nice

Damn, nice catch.

nice one, pretty big lol

you can eat the carribbean barracuda.

Dont eat the north gulf ones. they have too much mercury in their blood, for the most part.

That is pretty small actually.. i head down to Playa Del Carmen Mexico each year.. have seen many bigger then that just swimming..

Still a cool catch man.. should go out and see what I can pull in on my next trip.. :)

Barracudas are EXCELLENT to eat - but you should only eat them when fished in certain areas (Like down towards the southern part of the Carribean it is ok - Venezuela etc. - NOT in the northern and western part where they feed off a poisonus algea that you dont want in your little belly)

They make the BEST "steaks" when prepared the right way.

Nice one!

:thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup

We saw a few that we much bigger than this one swim under our boat, but this was the only one that hit my bait.

That's super cool!

Couldn't have caught one better myself!:thumbsup Nice Catch!

Wow.. Nice catch! I think I'd be scared pulling in one of those bastards.. They fucking bite!

that's a nice catch... I saw a swarm of barracudas when I was diving. :)
