Wahoo caught with Baja Mosquito Fleet in La Paz
All species

Wahoo

Acanthocybium solandri · Wahoo

The fastest strike in the ocean and, many guests say, the best-eating fish we bring to the dock.

Wahoo show up when the water is warmest, usually late August into November, and they hit like a freight train. We rig wire leaders and troll faster than usual around the Cerralvo ridges. One good wahoo feeds a family for a week.

How we fish it

  • High-speed trolling with wire
  • Deep-diving plugs near structure
  • Live bait around Cerralvo

Where we find it

Cerralvo Island, offshore banks and drop-offs
