Surf Fishing
Your handle
What ever possessed you to use wud as a handle, I have been on the board for a long time, hlywud has been synomously known as the "wud" by many of the DR1 gang.
Do not need the confusion.
And as for surf fishing you will catch some small yellowtails, snappers and the like but no cuda's.

Wud.
Baracuda are plentiful in the Punta Cana area. What type of Fishing will you be doing? I am assuming you will be using spinning tackle. For this type nothing beats tube lures. 6 to 12 inches long. Also any type of silver baitfish lure works well and also attarck other species. Mirro-O-lures work great for this. Don't forget wire leaders!!! Barracuda love fast retrieves. The faster the better. Don't be surprised if you catch the odd bonito or ceral mackeral.
Just expect to attract a crowd while fishing. Dominican like to watch! Expect to be heckled if you catch and release.

I never caught any cuda or bonito's, but some small mackeral, yellowtails, red snappers, a grouper or two but next time I will try larger lures, and yes do not forget the steel leaders.
I always gave my catch away to the resort staff, except once on a deep sea charter when I took a small dorado and released, they were pissed off to say the least. Here is a sample of last years deep sea charter, a nice one.
