Wahoo

Wahoo is a highly prized catch for anglers in the Florida Keys, renowned for its incredible speed and challenging fight. This pelagic species can reach speeds of up to 60 miles per hour, making it one of the fastest fish in the ocean. Whether you’re embarking on a deep sea fishing trip or targeting Wahoo during a Florida Keys fishing adventure, this species promises an exhilarating experience.

Wahoo are typically found in deep waters, often near underwater structures such as reefs, drop-offs, and wrecks. The best time to target Wahoo is during the cooler months, from November to April, as they tend to migrate closer to shore during this period. They are aggressive predators, often caught using trolling techniques with lures or live bait such as ballyhoo or sardines.
