I’d like to start by saying “WAHOOOO”! Thanks for the pictures of your wahoo’s that some of you sent me. November proved itself to be a great month for them. December is going to drive them further south and you can manage to get a nice haul in one day. Trolling at about 15 to 17 mph you are going to get the strikes you’re looking for. Black Bart has some of the best lures for this. Weaving on and off the ledge in about 200 to 250 feet is much advised. You can expect some rough days out there though as the weather pattern in December brings more of an east wind between 18 to 20 knots. If you have the ability to use some bent butt rods I advise this, your lure will be deeper in the water and increase your chances.

Happy Holidays to all! See you in South Abaco!

Tight lines!
