Hi, Richard,

I know about Mahi being good fish (presume that's what you meant).

We've been fortunate to catch quite a few - including a 44" one last year,
and, in one hour period, also last year, three in a row (much smaller) - but
none recently.

If you mean the Barracuda, we do keep and relish the30" ones. Like them
better than Mahi, in fact.

I've heard barracuda were excellent to eat but I know even the smaller
fish have a chance of carrying the ciguatera (sp?) disease.
