I grew up diving both coasts of Florida. Had many encounters with sharks but never feared them, even as a kid. I felt like I could almost predict their behavior. Barracuda, on the other hand were sneaky, smart, fast and highly unpredictable. I always kept my eyes on them and where they were at all times. Sharks could mostly be ignored as long as your behaviors were normal Pro tip: DO NOT wear jewelry in the ocean

They can do damage to a human, but they generally don’t mess with humans because we’re too big. That is unless we’re wearing something shiny. However, if you’ve speared a fish or lobster they might go after that. Divers have been training barracuda to go after lionfish because it’s an invasive species.

Was going to say it's great news that they are willing to eat Lionfish. We definitely need to encourage and protect the Cuda's doing that.

I know all of them are unique but this one is actually friendly. He will come up to you and wait patiently until you pet him. He has been habituated to people feeding him and does not see people as a threat whatsoever and never gets aggressive, even when feeding.

Being from Bermuda, we'd see Cudas 4-6 ft around beaches or shoals and smaller ones in the bays and mangroves. Never seen them or any recording of them eating lionfish. Always a scary feeling snorkeling and coming up on a 6ft Cuda. I found out, doing a stare down usually works and they swim off. Jumping off the rocks is a fun summertime event for all ages in Bermuda. Jumping into a school of juvenile Cudas, is nerve racking, but easily understood. Right before you hit the water, they move off, but the time you surface they are usually on your 5 or 7 o clock. Fun fish to snorkel with and watch hunt. Just remember your jewelry and dive masks, reflect the sun and that makes you a target for curious Cudas.

Many thanks! Several times during my snorkeling in the far reef I was in a situation when a barracuda was moving around me making me very uncomfortable. Sometimes it was close to the end of the day when the waters around the reef became darker and the fish were not well visible. Couple of times there were a few barracudas cruising around me and especially when one of them was large ~5.5 ft long. Once it was the case when I was not careful enough and dropped my camera which landed right underneath the fish. I wasn't ready to lose my pictures of the day and It took a lot of courage to get it back.

Back in the 1960s I was in Florida, standing on a dock looking into the clear water. I was just a young boy. I could see some mullet swimming as well as other ocean life. Suddenly, like a bolt of lightning, a huge barracuda came in fast and bit down on one of the mullets, leaving the mullets head, sinking down to the bottom. I ran to my family to tell them what had happened. My mother grabbed the movie camera. My dad went into the water and retrieved the head of the mullet. I have a 8mm film of that retrieval. But I will never forget seeing that happen.

1982 I’m snorkeling in a remote cove on the island of Tutuila (American Samoa). I had this feeling that something was watching me … I turned and the Great Barracuda was just a few feet away just looking at me. It was huge. Close to six feet long, foot long jaws with inch long teeth. It looked like a torpedo with teeth. I had been spearfishing, but thankfully had not shot any fish. I turned and slowly swam toward the monster and it moved off into the shadows. Huge fish. Had it desired, I would have been a snack.

Barracudas have never met lionfish in nature before humans introduced it into the carribean 30 years ago. And so they are most definitely NOT immune to its venom. But the moment they take that first bite, and gets stung, rage kicks in and they eat the rest of it and gets fatally injured in the ingestion process. Lionfish is now the leading cause of death among barracudas. Surpassing hunting by humans.

Many years ago I went out on an excursion while visiting the Bahamas and I was snorkeling with other guests. The tour boat took us a mile or so off shore and let us swim with little fishes that encircled us and flopped and flipped out of the water. Little did I know that this was one of the worst things you could be in the middle of because predators are drawn to the sound and vibrations of fish in distress. When you are under water you are relaxed by the silence so you have to rely on your vision should a danger appear. Sure enough about 40 feet away appears a large barracuda that slowly circled the group of swimmers and the dancing fish. I didn't think much of it and it was the first time I had seen a barracuda live. Interesting.

He had cut me off from the boat, and I was clearly pissing my shorts. Luckily, a 250 lb lady unknowingly floated between the Cuda and I as she headed to the same boat. As I saw the Cuda observe her huge plump fleshy butt dangling out of the water, I did what any reasonable person would do - I Michael Jackson moonwalked backwards with my flippers and hightailed it to another boat...

I got attacked by a Barracuda while Lionfish hunting in Bonaire, I think smelling the blood from the Lionfish made them more aggressive. After feeling the tip of the spear it ran away luckily.

I was in St. Thomas USVI scuba diving not far from shore and saw a stationary Barracuda about 8 feet away watching me. I swam a bit to see if it was fixed on me and when I moved it followed me. We floated there for a few seconds and I realized that I was wearing a thick gold chain and immediately covered it with my hand. As soon as I did that the fish swam away. I then realized how close I came to being seriously injured or even killed. It could have easily been taken a bite out of my neck (jugular) going for my chain thinking it was a fish. Still gives me chills thinking about it…..it wasn’t my time.

Although the voice is quite slow, I really enjoyed the informative nature of the video. Thank you so much for posting. It amazes me that eating this fish could be poisonous..

I saw a huge barracuda hanging out around the docks of Key West, where people order and eat lunch next to the boats. This big black barracuda would hide under a boat until another fish would swim by, or someone would throw part of their sandwich in the water. It had a fishing lure stuck to its face. I guessed it to be 80 pounds. It was well known for a while.
