BARRACUDA,
Sphyraena barracuda
Barracuda can grow very large, perhaps up
to 6 ft. and 106 lbs. They are not
dangerous fish as thought by many.
Swimmers in Antiguan waters have recorded
no attack. They look very fierce with a
large tooth showing outside their
lips. |

| They
feed on other smaller fish; they usually they
circle their victim first before attacking.
Commonly caught near reefs when trolling, and
often seen by reef snorkelers. The flesh of large
specimens in Antigua can be toxic with ciguatera. |
