Catch Barracuda atGulfstream HALLANDALE, Fla., May 29.— Now that the water-skiers have deserted Gulfstream Parks infield lake, it can be told. Main-tenence superintendent Fred Capps reports that a 33-pound barracuda has been hooked by one of the track workers, largest fish yet caught in the lake. It also was the first barracuda reported. Previous record infield catch was a 28-pound channel bass. The fish enter the lake through sluices when pumps raise the level to a required depth shortly before the. start of the season, and they grow and thrive while awaiting some anglers hook.
