Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which fish is the best bait for catching barracuda?

Answer: Ballyhoo

The ballyhoo is the best bait for barracuda fishing because it has flashy silver sides.
2. When trolling for barracuda you use this lure with a strip of fish on its hook.

Answer: Feather jig

The feather jig is one of the best baits to use when trolling for barracuda. When you add the strip of fish, it gives off a scent which attracts the barracuda.
3. When fishing with ballyhoo for barracuda, which rig should you use?

Answer: Bobber

A bobber restricts a ballyhoo's movements making it struggle while keeping it on the surface where barracuda strike.
4. What was the weight of the heaviest barracuda caught in the twentieth century?

Answer: 103 lbs

This world record barracuda weighed 103 lbs and was 5 and a half feet long. Wouldn't want to put my hand near that one.
5. How many humans have been documented as killed by barracuda during the 20th century?

Answer: one

The barracuda has only had one documented kill and that was in 1947. They look vicious but they are very rarely deadly.
6. Which types of objects do barracuda like?

Answer: Flashy objects

Pufferfish would be as poisonous to a barracuda as they are to humans. Dull objects such as rods (especially fishing rods) and rocks will not catch a barracuda's attention.
7. When fishing for barracuda where would you go?

Answer: Reef

The reefs are the most common places to catch large barracuda, yet you can catch them in channels. They gather in reefs because ballyhoo, snapper, and other fish school there.
8. The barracuda sometimes carry which poisoning?

Answer: Ciguatra

Barracuda can get ciguatra poisoning by eating fish that eat coral. Leukemia is a cancer and can not be obtained by eating fish. Gingivitis is a gum disease and fishitis is a word I invented.
9. Which best describes a barracuda's fighting skills?

Answer: They are strong but tire out quickly

Barracuda can tire out somewhat quickly, yet are very strong while fighting. Still, barracuda are quite a challenge to catch.
10. When fishing for barracuda with 50+ line, which is the greatest necessity?

Answer: Strong circle hooks

With strong line you need strong circle hooks. Your hook will bend if its not strong enough. A circle hook will stick in the side of the barracuda's mouth getting the line away from the barracuda's teeth. A steel leader is also a good precaution.
