in this video we headed out of palm beach inlet started off the morning trolling planers for wahoo ill outline our trolling spread below but we ended wahoo fishing after about 2 hrs we got 2 cutoffs and caught a gill net cutoffs kinda just happen some days we fish mono most the time in hopes of getting more bites and inevitably you endup getting cutoff.

Anyway after wahoo fishing we headed east south east for a 20 mile run out to about 1800ft of water looking for birds and weed lines seeing absolutly nothing along the way was starting to lose hope when we turned slightly north and found a nice patch probably 20ft around and some more near by so we put couple lures out ill list them bellow and started trolling around the weedlines and next thing you know bam mahi on the line !!

.:: Tackle Breakdown ::.

Wahoo Trolling
2 Avet 30 wides one port and one starboard for the long and short planer
Short planer #8 is a light colored seawitch with a bonita strip
Long planer #4-6 is a darker colored seawitch blues purples red black etc
2 top baits on talica 16s with little feathers or squid skirts with mylars etc for tuna or mahi those are on the outriggers and we will run a long shotgun feather as well

Mahi Trolling
When running and gunning for mahi or searching multiple patchs we keep it super simple like to run a small squid skirt with a bonita strip that you can cast out if need be on one side of boat on the other side run a naked or skirted chin weighted ballyhoo normally close to the boat 30-50ft back and down the center running a mahi hunter lure its a small squid skirt with a hook being chased by a larger mylar chugger head awesome lures for mahi

If you have any questions or wanna see something specific drop it in the comments ill be happy to make it happen
