Wahoo is found throughout the world’s tropical and sub-tropical waters. Wahoo spawns seasonally in the sub-tropics and year-round in tropical waters. This reproductive behavior, coupled with the fact that it matures early and can produce half a million to 45 million eggs, makes wahoo naturally resilient to fishing pressure. Their maximum age remains a mystery, though they are known to live at least five years. Days like this are very rare and seem magical when happening. I, for one, love fishing and respect conservation. However, there is no better feeling than having a day like this and providing all of your friends, family, coworkers, neighbors and their families with fresh wahoo filets. I always get asked for filets when I fish and typically don't have enough to feed 20 other people (after splitting with the guys I fish with). The marlin looked healthy kicking by the boat before photo. I heard the urgency in your voice getting a photo quickly so that it could get back in the wate
I DO SEE it is not like the commercial netters raping the ocean AND I also see it is not really what most of us think as "sport" fishing. The boat does not even slow down. I don't "have a problem" with it. Just wish they could cut the engine and fish with maybe 40 pound class gear, steel leaders and have a good fight, instead of basically roping them in while the boat keeps going. Not as much fun--is that ok to say?
I agree... That looks so. Boring. I caught a 100 pound tuna in Mexico they cut the engine and let me fight it. It took 40 minutes in between barfing due to crazy swells.
AND, you fought the fish--all by yourself. I have had some serious ass chewing by many people of late, because I have suggested people should fight their own fish--and not "hand off" to 2, 3, or more people during the fight. A lot of people don't agree that doing it yourself is "sporting" while handing off, is not. Of course, one thing that is NOT debatable is that the IGFA (international game fish associaion) will not recognize any kind of record for any fish if they find the angler handed off during the fight. A few other rules too: one, you can't let the rod touch the rail, and two, you must submit a piece of the fishing line so they can test it.
I'm sure you guys love the ocean and fishing, but you have to be conscientious about fishing. You've taken a large amount of wahoos (count to 21) which is even beyond the limit. Please respect the ocean and all the creatures in it.
@@MisterQueue67 If we all think like you, we will never get anywhere... You're basically saying because they might not all be doing it, private, unlicensed people should be doing it... real clever.
It's strange to see how the life is taken away of this beautiful creatures while this beautiful music is playing at the same time. Has something really sad... Just think about the pain that this fish has in the moment and how it's presented in this video.
The rules in the Bahamas are each foreign VESSEL (not each person, each BOAT) is allowed to have on board no more than 20 POUNDS of fish on board. So several of the commenters are correct, this is not a video about fishing, it is a video about POACHING! If the world was a fair place the next time these rich idiots tried to check in to the Bahamas they would be arrested and have their boat seized. Also great teaching the kid how the rules only matter for those "other people". It's sad really. The first shot brags about how they spent $5000 on gas. I guess they figure that entitles them to kill fish that I think still works out to something like $50 a pound.
That was a sick video, excellent fishing, editing, music fitted in nicely. I was just wondering, was catching and keeping that many wahoo necessary? I don't mean to jump to conclusions or anything. I was just thinking about limiting your kill and not killing your limit.
Way too many fish to keep. I am avid fisherman and going to Bahamas is 2 weeks. I have no problem with beautiful day on the water fishing with family and friends but way too many wahoo kept. This video made me sick as a fisherman. not to mention the electric reels while sport fishing...come on
Exactly my thoughts. These kind of people are the reason so many fisheries are getting depleted. And if they were day fishing for swords, I’d understand the electric reel but for wahoo?? C’mon.
love offshore fishing but my goodness way overkill and yes electric reels? is this commercial fishing ? try a bit of conservation leave some for another day...
Sure glad I fish wahoo from San Diego long range vessels. Four anglers troll and the vessel slides to a stop to land troll hooked fish. You and wahoo one on one. You crank fast to keep your fish hooked. Sure you lose a few but that’s fishing. Once the vessel stops that’s when the real fun begins. Tossing iron or live bait with 30-50 lb gear. Following the wahoo up the rail. Working with other anglers on the rail. You can keep your high speed trolling for wahoo. And you wonder why wahoo fishing is usually poor. Try keeping a few and not everything that hits the lure.
Uhhh yea of course not bc you can’t catch that many. Any actual fisherman would definitely keep that many. You don’t leave biting fish until you have your limit. Not to mention by the time you pay for the boat, tackle, taxes, insurance, fuel, maintenance, etc… you are wasting a lot of money to drive to the Bahamas and catch two wahoo and come home! 😂
I am just back from a fishing trip to whahoos in Malaysia, jigging all day whith hand rods and relaesing all fishes except one each. What is on this video is not sport fishing. Are you selling the fish to reimburse the gazoline?
That is absolutely devestating the amount of wahoos you caught and kept and we wonder why the population is going down so quickly you do it for the meat not the fight not the fish itself me and my dad just went to key west on are 4th private charter just to catch me my first wahoo and It was the best day ever to think you kill this many makes me want to throw up
Excellent filming skills! Everything worked together very fluidly. You are a top notch UA-cam editor! Also, fantastic job telling this exciting narrative. I do hope you fed a lot of people with all of the ones you kept. If not, kind of makes me less excited about your high quality video.
First of all I have to agree with MOST of the posters here. There was no need to keep that many Wahoo, and I sure as hell hope that Marlin survived but since I saw no evidence of it swimming away I can only assume it didn't make it due to the "importance" of the photo op. Now for the "fishing." Pressing a button on an electric reel sitting in a rod holder is hardly sport fishing so those cheering trip of a life time obviously have little clue. I lived 5 years in the Bahamas, caught plenty of fish including a 2nd place for a 448 lb Blue Marlin. You want to sport fish, find another boat and captain; one that either has a fighting chair, or stand-up rods and fuck those electric reels unless your just going to grab a few for dinner, especially deep drops. This vidio should be called, gaffing 101, there certainly wasn't any real fishing in the video.
are you guys commercial fisherman?! No fun seeing every Wahoo caught gaffed and on the dock......Wahoo are amazing fish...would be nice to get some GIANT fish back in the system
Andrew Munro there’s plenty there where they went that migrate through in the winter. Unlike most places, the Bahamas is a spot in the world where you can catch numbers of fish like that and have zero impact on population.
The incidence of billfish death goes up exponentially when you pull them out of the water for photographic purposes. Keep them in the water. Nice harvest of wahoo.
Slayer Circuit El video es magnifico. ¿Podría por favor compartir el nombre de la canción de fondo?. The video is magnificent . Could you please share the name of the song in the background ?.
cut the engines, fight the fish. this shit takes all the fun out of fishing. got a 40 punder wahoo off of the taganga bay in Colombia on a panga style boat with a 40 yamaha engine with a nasty sea. now that's fishing.
Fill the tanks, troll the lures and just sit to wait for a fish which is by no means strong enough to test the gear. No drag used, no chance for the fish to win ,not a real fight. Sorry guys but this not fishing.
Snipzz 2428 It's one thing to catch and eat Wahoo, but the Marlin should have been released, and if it too was caught on an electric reel..... hardly what I would call sport fishing.
I can only understand this if was a commercial fishery. This is so far removed from actual recreational sport fishing...these kids are learning a twisted reality. These guys should be ashamed.
I enjoy going fishing. To me a lot of the fun is playing a big fish. I don't understand how using an electric reel is enjoyable, especially when you've paid loads of money for the boat etc.
I have been looking for fresh wahoo at my local and out of state fish stores for months on the east coast.....Now I can see why I still haven't been able to find anyone that has it.....
Yall talkin about taking that many when they shouldnt have any . They came into bahamas waters slaughtered our bahamas fish and took them back to the u.s . We dont come and take yalls fish why u gotta do it to us
Agree that is not exactly what I would call SPORT fishing, but wahoo sure is good eating and you can bet that not an ounce of that delicious fillet will go to waste...
Ken Riehl I hope your right but I doubt it. You really expect them to eat it for dinner every night which would take them quite a long time I doubt it. Seeing a lot of these type of people going to the Bahamas and bring it back all these fish usually 30% of it gets eaten at best. They have 21 wahoo ranging from anywhere from 20 to 60 something pounds they probably had a good 700 lb of Wahoo at least. That's over 2 months worth of meat if they ate 10 pounds a day
I see nothing wrong with high speed trolling as it keeps away JUNK fish like baracuda, However I do agree taking 21 fish is totally uneccessary. Take what you can eat and release the rest, CMON people!
do you really think you are a fisherman? do you keep all those wahoo to maintain your family or to increase the gallons in your tank? within twenty years your children will only fish jellyfish.....C&R please....

Jmichael Isbell its ridiculous its not even fishing if you ask me they just use electric reels
Jmichael Isbell i caught a 5 foot wahoo and all i could think about was the fight and all these people aren't even doing anything smh
What you did Jake is what sport fishing is supposed to be about
The Zebra Slayers!! That is a crazy fishing trip there!!
Great fishing and awesome video.You guys crushed it.Music fit in perfectly.
When do they start fishing? Is that before all the killing of fish or after the killing?
Just think about how good he will taste. Wahoo is my favorite fish from the ocean.
I'm sure you guys love the ocean and fishing, but you have to be conscientious about fishing. You've taken a large amount of wahoos (count to 21) which is even beyond the limit. Please respect the ocean and all the creatures in it.

Pelagic?
@@cubbie9499 yes you can’t bring a blue marlin up on the boat and then release it. Pelagic is the name for a fish that lives in the ocean

awesome video guys!!!!
please consider catch and release, I want my grandchildren to be able to catch wahoo as well.
There’s no catch and release with wahoos my man especially through Florida and the Bahamas there’s no size limit or bag limit
Is trolling the only way to catch them on lures?
One of the best videos I have ever seen! If y'all ever need an extra guy I'm available!
How deep ya go for wahoo fishing??
Excellent vid! Been on two trips out in the GOM and it was a blast. Mahi, Kings, Snaps and plenty of black tips...
Killed them!!! Including the Marlin.
IKR
gtts4u Pretty sure they eat the Wahoo, and why do you think the Marlin died?
gtts4u THEY SHOW THE MARLIN release dumb fuck
krazymarmot What is shown is a kid hanging onto the bill. Whether the fish was revided or not is NOT shown.
@@rski1036 they would have shown it swim away if it didn’t sink to the bottom.
Awesome wahoo but do u really need to keep 18 wahoo? Tuna makes sense but wahoo is a smaller bag limit

are you guys commercial fisherman?! No fun seeing every Wahoo caught gaffed and on the dock......Wahoo are amazing fish...would be nice to get some GIANT fish back in the system
did you leave any Wahoo left in the ocean?
theyre fishing in an area where zero boats make the run to or know about....Relax

Hola a qué profundidad y velocidad buscan los wahoo y si usan ballyhoo o solo ilander gracias
you guys killed it love you boat what a badass fishing machine
that's one of the best fishing videos I've seen, and definitely worth the fuel!

This is too fancy and senseless for me too
Necessary to take all those fish out?????
This is the most humane way to harvest fish and still you bitch.... Uhh....
Just because its 'humane' doesn't mean you they should take out all the fish they can!!
i would like to know what they do with it. do they sell it? how much is a fish of that sice?
