Barracudas and kingfish both have the tendency to skyrocket out of the water especially in the summer months!They are dangerous to eat though .Ciguaterra is something you never ever want to experince in your life!I had a friend in miami get ciguaterra poisining and she had it for months!Cudas are just about everywhere this time of year.Mrs.ocean can confirm this! We went out on a fishing trip and everywhere we went the cudas were taking our fish.Only thing that would come up were heads and half eaten bodies. This one guy next to her caught a cuda but she didnt notice him fighting his fish cause she was concentrating on her line by jigging.Then the mate gaffs this 4ft cuda and she didnt see him pulling it up.All of a sudden she turns and looks at it bouncing on the floor and i have never seen a person jump so high in my life!That year there were about 10 cuda attacks on people and all by skyrocketing cudas and thats why she was so freaked out!
