Pitchinkid Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 No snook or redfish in that part of Florida? not in order, Permit, Amazon peas, Roosterfish, Barramundi. Does a Barramundi look like a Yellow fin tuna with a Barracuda head? I saw this fish the other night on Natural Geographic but cant remeber its name Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted February 3, 2009 Super User Posted February 3, 2009 Even though barramundi are related to snook I think they look more like a small tarpon. As it's on my list I haven't been up close and personal to one. I do not know what has the body of a yellow fin and a head of a barracuda Quote
Branuss04 Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 1. Maco(sp) Shark 2. Bluefin Tuna 3. Golden Trout 4. Giant Sturgeon Quote
Pitchinkid Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 im not sure of the name of it. they were off a reef in australia i believe. It was on that show Fish vs Man. it came on right after that "Hooked on Bass". They hooked up with 2 at the same time. A shark got ahold of one and they only got 1/2 of the fish in the boat. Quote

Super User Bassn Blvd Posted February 3, 2009 Super User Posted February 3, 2009 Samall mouth bass Cobia Permit Some kind of freshwater trout Salmon Quote
tritz18 Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Sturgeon Salmon Muskie Any kind of trout other than lake trout, cause I have caught them before Quote
Super User Muddy Posted February 3, 2009 Super User Posted February 3, 2009 only one MERMAID!!!!!!! Quote
Big Tom Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 I would really like to set into a big Muskie. I have wanted to catch one for a long while now and have hooked a couple while bass fishing. Any fish that will attack a lure that is in the backwash of your boat has got to be a fun fish to catch. Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted February 4, 2009 Super User Posted February 4, 2009 Tally, there are some fish reserves in central Florida where barramundi are stocked. I believe in the Ocala area Quote
tallydude Posted February 4, 2009 Author Posted February 4, 2009 Yeah, I know. But the allure of catching these fish is going after them in their native habitat. The places you're talking about are self enclosed stock ponds. Don't get me wrong, I'd fish there in a heartbeat, but I'd really love to go after them in Oz. Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted February 4, 2009 Super User Posted February 4, 2009 I hear ya, I'd love to catch the same peacock I catch in my backyard down in the amazon. Quote
