Re: Ciguatera?
Culebra, Puerto Rico

Ciguatera has nothing to do whether the fish is 'old' or not. Size does matter, though ;)
Barracuda, shunned by North Americans, when eaten small and still swimming in schools are one of the most delicious. I believe they even have a separate name than the adults.
Now if you can get a real charcoal grill and a Portuguese to grill them for you ...
I have lived of the fish I caught in Culebra for months on end and never had anything. Friends of mine had some bad cases of ciguatera, being 'out' for weeks and not being able to eat fish for years. I never ate really big fish. Then again, who really knows?

Enjoy Culebra!
