The giant Atlantic barracuda bite has been excellent during the past couple of weeks and remains the focus of the action for this report. According to the fleet's manager, Armando Gutierrez, there is still an occasional sailfish and blue or white marlin being taken by the anglers, but the barracuda have been providing a great deal of the action for our anglers. Overall catches for 6 fishing days reflected 1 sailfish, 3 king mackerel, 2 Spanish mackerel, 2 bonito, 1 triggerfish, 3 red snapper and 26 barracuda.
