High Speed Trolling For Wahoo
If you are offshore fishing in tropical and subtropical waters anywhere in the world, you are familiar with the wahoo or ono (Acanthocybium solandri). The sporting prowess of this scombrid fish and its high-quality as table fare make it a prized game fish. Many saltwater fishing anglers catch wahoo by accident, but when you set out to target this pelagic species with discretion, there is a definite science. What we did for this In The Spread HIGH SPEED WAHOO TROLLING instructional video, to make it really dynamic was to bring in several guys, at the top of the game, to share their in-depth experience wahoo fishing in the Bahamas. We fish areas around Bimini and Cay Sal and then come back into the RJ Boyle tackle shop to break down the tactics, strategies, tackle and rigging required for wahoo fishing. These fishermen have had huge success fishing some of the biggest tournaments and are willing to share everything they know. Tides play a hug roll in trolling for wahoo on the edge. Learn about which tides are most ideal and which part of that given tide will produce more bites. Since we focus more on center console boat trolling, we will share insight on how to setup and optimize spreads for this style of boat. How many lures work well within the spread and what are you trying to achieve in the presentation? Knowing what to do when you get a bite is a huge ingredient in triggering second and third bites, so pay close attention to the strategies discussed. Driving is critical in trolling fishing. Find out what to do and what no to do when that bite comes. Our instructors will also demonstrate a few fishing tips related to your angling that can get you more bites.

Planer Fishing | Fundamentals And Techniques - In The Spread
If you are fishing in nearshore waters of 300 feet or less, planers are the most productive tool you can use. In the summer months when the air temperature is much higher and the upper water column is going to be on the hotter side, fish are going to be deeper. How do you get your baits down to where the fish are hanging out? You use a fishing planer. If you are not using them, you might as well go play golf. Keep in mind, even though we filmed this in South Florida, you can apply what you learn here about trolling planer fishing to any fishery. This In The Spread fishing video, featuring RJ Boyle, will cover how to use a planer for fishing. A few of the topics we cover include big boat and small boat setups, tackle, rods and reels, rigs, tactics and techniques for this style of angling. See why it will benefit you to fish a planer with this super in-depth presentation. Learn about the mechanics of the rig. We break down the hooks used, the mylar, squid skirts and sea witches that cover your bait. What color skirts should you use in clear water and dirty? Learn about the fluorocarbon and monofilament used and how much you really need. Get a clear understanding of why multiple swivels are necessary on both ends of the planer. What are the best strip baits to use with your planer fishing rig? RJ will discuss bonito, mullet, squid and artificial or rubber strip baits. Remember, fresh is best, so go with whatever is most predominant in your home waters. Learn how to hook baits with single and double hook rigs. We will show you how to set up your trolling spread, for both sport fishers and center consoles, using different size planers and why this is important.
