Maybe someone out there can help to settle a bet: has there EVER been a baracuda caught off of the Pensacola Pier?

Yeah happens all the time when the mackerel and bobos are running..Have to have some stout gear because they like to wrap you in the pilings..Catch an occasional baby cuda on sabiki rigs..Also seen them eat tube lures

I caught 3 off the pier this year on home made tube lures. I broke off like 4 more due to them going under on me. It is hard to get them to eat baits most of the time but we do catch a few.

| Definitley, Years ago there used to be tons of barracuda that hung around the piers and they were caught fairly frequently, however; there are not nearly as many anymore.

| Hooked a bunch, none landed. Two were knocked off by the gaffer, the others either ran under or spooled me (fishing for spanish, etc). Most hit live cigar minnows, two hit ladyfish, one was hooked on a remora that had hit a sabiki rig. When I brought the remora up, the barracuda rushed it. Naturally, I let the remora back down and he smacked it! Spooled, of course....
