Bahamas edge fishing for wahoo demands precise depth control at high speeds where running too deep eliminates bites and staying too shallow attracts wrong species. Success depends on maintaining the optimal zone while trolling at 12 knots, reading tidal phases that drive wahoo activity, and using boat positioning to keep lures working the depth transition continuously.

Why Is Edge Fishing the Most Productive Zone for Bahamas Wahoo?
The deep water edge in the Bahamas concentrates wahoo along a defined boundary where pelagic predators patrol for baitfish being pushed against the depth transition. Corey Burlew explains how this structure creates a predictable fishery where high-speed trolling systematically works the edge rather than searching open water for scattered fish.
How Do Tides and Wind Conditions Affect Wahoo Bite Windows?
The Bahamas wahoo fishery operates on tidal cycles that dictate fish activity levels and positioning along the edge. Burlew emphasizes reading tide phases to predict when wahoo feed most aggressively versus when they hold tight and refuse presentations.
What Depth Zone Produces Wahoo Strikes During High-Speed Trolling?
Maintaining precise depth separates productive trolling from wasted effort. Running too deep eliminates bites entirely, while staying too shallow attracts species other than wahoo and misses the zone where these speedsters hunt.
How Do Boat Driving and Angling Technique Affect Hookup Success?
Boat positioning relative to the edge and maintaining consistent speed at 12 knots keeps lures in the productive zone continuously. Driving angles and turn execution determine whether spreads work through wahoo concentrations or drift out of the depth band where fish feed.
