That is a great job!

Barracuda???

Missing:
Blackfin Tuna
Big Eye Tuna
Albacore Tuna (Penguins)
Atlantic Bonito
Skipjack Tuna
Mahi mahi

I think there are at least two different types of Squid.

There are some pictures on the site of hook and line caught Yellow Tail Flounder but I believe this is very rare. NYS does in fact have a recreational size limit for Yellow Tail Flounder.

.The baracuda I catch during the summer months In my cast net there were alot of them a couple of weeks ago.

the "barracuda" you catch in your cast net are really Northern Sennet. You are also missing several other types of skate. AFAIK there are no blackfin tuna off of Long island. You are also missing Yellowtail flounder and Atlantic sole.
