Fact, Its body is elongated and the back is an iridescent blue, while the sides are silvery with a pattern of irregular vertical blue bars. These colors fade rapidly at death. The mouth is large, and the teeth of the wahoo are razor sharp. Both the upper and lower jaws have a somewhat sharper appearance than those of king or Spanish mackerel. Wahoo tend to be solitary or occur in loose-knit groups or pack of two or three fish. Fact, we love targeting this particular fish. Trolling the coastline of Bonaire is a relaxing way to fish. It allows time to share stories and contemplate life's moments until the screaming of the reel wakens the crew and organized chaos takes on a whole new meaning. Flo and I look at eachother with understanding. I start to slow down Calypso and the fight is on. Reeling in with a steady motion is key to a successful catch. Keeping the rod in the holder for part of the way till the moment Flo feels it right to stand and continue the reel. Keeping the rod low and pointing towards the fish helps. At the last moment I begin to turn the boat and grab the gaff ready to land this beauty.

We consider ourselves to be very lucky here on Bonaire. Within minutes of leaving our dock space and the marina mouth, our lines can be in the crystal clear water with at least 180 feet as our coastline drops off really quickly. It was our pleasure to take these guys out on the hunt for tuna and as you see, big smiles were had by all. For their first time experience they will be back. Thanks guys.
