Catching Wahoo off the Fort Lauderdale coast

Today we had Rob, Loran and Joe all from Ohio and Chuck from Jupiter Florida

We started out kite fishing with little to no bites to speak of when all of a sudden a small king fish ate one of our kite baits. Loran jumped in the chair and the fight was on. Truth be told I did go ahead a little bit with the boat just to keep this little kingfish from getting under the boat but I was more concerned with keeping the other 3 kite baits under the kite and trying not to drag them around too much when Captain Greg reached down and gaffed what we thought was a little kingfish turned out that when he flipped him into the boat and we all seen this 18 pound Wahoo hit the deck no one was more surprised than me.

Holly cow talk about a lucky catch!!

After anther couple hours of no bites we brought in all the kite fishing gear and set out some trolling baits.

We had drifted so far to the south that I was trolling about 7 knots an hour just trying to get back toward home when all of a sudden our wire line bent over and we were Hooked Up again.

This time Chuck jumped in the chair and in came anther Wahoo.

LUCK HELL YES but we’ll take it any way we can get it.

We ended up with a couple of 18 to 20 pound Wahoo’s and one 15-pound kingfish.

Guys’ thanks again for your patience and hope you guys enjoy dinner.
