HI guys went out for another fish yesterday. Got onto a few trickie snapper, but that was about it. Full moon at the moment, so there is plenty of current and shitloads of sharks. Anyway old mate caught this fish today. Is it a small barracuda??? Cheers

Had
Had needle teeth! We were not sure if it was a snook, apparently thery do get a few up here. My call was a cuda, but they were saying snook. Do snook have sharp teeth or not, never caught one?

Wade that looks like a axehandle
Ie a Barracuda. Little one. It has the thick body with stripes developing. I am possitive that is a cuta.
