THE DTB CATCH COLLECTION

Wahoo

One of the fastest fish in the Gulf.

PLAN YOUR TIME ON THE WATER

Part of the blue-water story.

Wahoo are fast, toothy and hit hard. The crew mostly trolls for them, and live bait and chumming come into play too. Ask your captain which approach fits the trip and the conditions.

Catches depend on season, conditions and current regulations. A photograph records a past catch, not a promise for your trip.

Good fit

Who this trip suits

  • Anglers who want a fast, aggressive offshore target.
  • Groups weighing wahoo, tuna, mahi, and other bluewater options.
  • Visitors who need help choosing the right season and water.
Planning

Planning notes

Plan around conditions. Wahoo fishing depends on timing, water, and captain judgment.

Bluewater mix. Wahoo often come on the same bluewater days as tuna and mahi.

Call DTB. Call when the group wants a species-specific day instead of a general offshore run.

Before you go

What to bring and confirm

  • Ask whether wahoo should be a primary target or part of a mixed plan.
  • Confirm the run, timing, and forecast with DTB.
  • Bring the same comfort basics expected on a full offshore day.
