wahoooo

captwells · 02-07-2009, 09:38 AM

It just doesn’t get any better than this. You want wahoo? No problem! I took Gary Burns and three coworkers out yesterday and the wahoo wanted to play.

I have a personal boat limit of two wahoo per man and they were biting so good we went over on a triple header on what would turn out to be our last pass of the day. It’s tough to leave them biting like that but I believe it is the right thing to do plus that way I leave some for you. We also caught around 10 amberjacks pulling for wahoo, at one point they were so thick they chased us from a rig because any time we got next to the rig we tripled up on jacks. What a great problem to have! Yesterday it didn’t matter what you had in the water they ate all makes, models, and colors equally. The only thing that surprised me was that we only caught one on ballyhoo. Nice warm almost blue water but they wanted diving baits.

Great catch! Nice to have a personal boat limit. Very nice.

Where was this?

Good work skipper; it looks like the cold weather helped with the wahoo bite. Keep up the great work.

Tight Lines,

It was out of Venice and a boat limit is something I wish everyone would do. Gotta leave some for seed.
