Fisheries / Fishing | | English term or phrase: trevally | | "They went fishing for trevally and barracuda". I know that a barracuda is a Pfeilhecht, but what about a trevally. According to a previous KudoZ glossary entry, there is no German translation for that. However, somehow I think there must be one. |

| | Stachelmakrele | Explanation:
I'd spell it with only one l at the end.
Trevally can refer to any fish of the Caranx genus, but Stachelmakrele is probabaly close enough to give readers the idea - it doesn't sound as though scientific precision is the point of your text. |
