Nice Wahoo!

We were contacted by our customer Steve Sprague this week and he had a fish story to tell. On January 7th, 2009 he was trolling our pink/black "wahoo-bite" off the coast of Palm Beach, FL. His speed was 14 knots, and the fish weighed 50+ pounds. His email to us concluded by saying: "Nice way to start the new year!". You got that right Steve! Thanks for sharing!

Wahoo Season appears to be near..

We have been talking to fellow fishermen in our area, and it appears that wahoo are starting to enter our waters in thicker numbers.. When summer starts to give way to autumn, wahoo fishermen get giddy with the thought of line peeling off their reels at a staggering pace.. It is common for a mid-size wahoo to dump 1/2 the line of a 30 pound outfit on its initial run!

The crew of Bigbite Offshore has perfected their technique for targeting these torpedo's of the ocean. This particular wahoo was caught on our red wahoobite, and it can be found on our website at: click-here

We will be more than happy to share our experiences with everyone in the coming months! Until then, be sure to keep 'em tight!

Old Wahoo Footage

This video is an oldie, but goodie!! One of the many good times on Mike's old 19 Mako "Kingfisher II". That Mako may have been small, but she sure did take care of us. This particular trip we had heard of reports of wahoo being caught south of Port Everglades all week. So Mike puts together a crew of three, Mike, Manny, and Pete. We decide that the earlier the better so we hit the inlet at just after dawn. The plan was to troll some BigBite Offshore "Wahoo-Bites" wahoo lures over the reefs in a zig-zag motion between 90-250. It didn't take very long before the line started peeling off and we knew what we had in store. WAHOO, AKA ONO for anglers out west. This video is the final 2:30 of the fight. Manny was on the rod, Mike on the gaff, and Pete filming the video. Enjoy the footage.
