The pickhandle barracuda (Sphyraena jello) is a species of barracuda found throughout the Indo-Pacific region. Its common name derives from the dark marks along its sides, which look like the thick ends of pickaxe handles.[1] Sea anglers sometimes colloquially shorten the name to "pick".[2] Other common names for the species include banded barracuda, yellowtail barracuda, and sea pike.[3]
