Recommended Tackle Selections for Wahoo Trolling

From Left to Right:
• TB2
• Large Hawkeye
• Wolf
• Wahoo Troublemaker
• Medium Hawkeye
• 1lb to 3lb Trolling Weight (Cigar Weight)

Wahoo can be found in 100-400ft water depths, near the deep side of reefs or drop-offs. They can also be found occasionally lurking deep below schools of mahi-mahi, and along well-developed weedlines.

The most common way to target wahoo, is to "high-speed" troll. The use of heavy rods and 50-class reels is recommended. Dragging heavy bullet-shaped lures (pictured above) behind 2lb or 3lb trolling weights is the ticket. The streamlined lures and weights are necessary for the 10-16 knot trolling speeds that wahoo seem to prefer. Ray and his employees are all skilled wahoo fishermen, and will be happy to explain the rigs and techniques needed to catch one of South Florida's fastest fish!
