To me it depends on how you are going to fish. Are you going offshore in a boat, to the reef on a boat, or just surf fishing or fishing from a dock. I have had a lot of luck with Squid for snapper in the Caymans at the reef and from our dock. Just go to the grocery store and pick up some frozen squid, cut it up into chunks, and bait a waited hook. We have caught all sorts of stuff this way and the fishing has always been fast and fun. If the fish aren't biting on the squid you can also try conch, though its a little harder to get.
I have caught two barracuda while offshore on someones boat, but I'm not entirely sure what exactly they used as bait. We were trolling for wahoo with some spoons and the barracuda took a swipe at it. Good luck!

Around here they like ballyhoo and squid.
