I threw a chopped up fillet out for burly and caught a good flathead with a large chunk of it in its mouth I suspect they are a very good all round bait Plenty around at the moment as well.

"Cooking: Barracouta are a tasty eating fish with firm pinkish-white flesh when cooked. Smaller fish have numerous small bones. Larger fish may have a microscopic parasite that causes the flesh to go milky or worms in the gut or flesh. Both are killed by cooking, but barracouta should not be eaten raw. They have medium oil content and are suitable to bake, barbecue, deep fry, grill and shallow fry. Often used to make fish patties."
