Wahoo and Mahi bite continues as the storm pushes by.

Pictured here is Will Fasullo with a nice wahoo caught while trolling off Boca aboard the "Lisa B". The bite remained consistent for wahoo, mahi-mahi and blackfin tuna even with the surf kicked up from the storm that skirted the coast. Surfers were in full force catching waves as we were trolling the coast this week catching a mixed bag of fish. Lots of boats ventured offshore looking for mahi which was productive most of the week. We saw several fish caught over 20 pounds. This weekend should be the time to go as the current pushes floating debris from the storm past our area. I would definitely be looking for mahi over the weekend. Don't be afraid to travel 15-20 miles off in search of quality fish that will be staged up on debris. Keep an eye out for birds which can be a dead giveaway for floating objects. Several boats traveled to the Bahamas this week in search of wahoo but most came back without a fish. We anticipate the Bahama bite to pick up shortly. I cannot stress enough that you need to check in while fishing Bahamian waters and be sure to abide by US regulations on bag limits when returning which seems to read as two per person or 10 max per boat when returning to the states. If you are headed over to the islands, I would suggest making a call to FWC to confirm bag limits. FWC has been checking boats continuously in the local inlets so make sure you also have all of the necessary safety equipment and travel documents on board your vessel.
