WAHOO / ONO

Wahoo for wahoo! The wahoo is the perfect gamefish. Long and sleek these silver and blue missiles of the sea are fast and aggressive providing immense sport for those anglers lucky enough to encounter these wonderful fish. Like mahi, wahoos are often found around and associated with offshore floating weed lines and debris. Wahoo arrive in the waters off of northwest Florida's Gulf Coast around late April / early May and may remain through November. Commonly caught while trolling, these fish can be targeted using live baits and fishing around deep water structures as well. Wahoo often leap or "skyrocket" on hapless baits or trolled lures, and they are known for their lightning quick runs which can relieve a fishing reel of several hundred yards of line in seconds. Rarely available in fish markets, Wahoo are excellent eating and for this reason any wahoo is considered a good wahoo. Wahoo grow to over 100 pounds and any wahoo over 70 pounds is a real trophy. Wahoo are a possible / probable catch anytime the Gail Force is in offshore trolling mode, however Captain John recommends April - June for specifically targeting the larger fish during their spring migration. Contact Captain John and plan on your first or next wahoo real soon.
