Trigger fish are also in the mix , especially around the ledges and structure. They’re known for being sharp and aggressive, and once hooked, they bring the kind of fight that offshore anglers live for.
And let’s talk wahoo —we’ve had some good action with big wahoo smashing baits boat-side. Their explosive runs and aerial displays are nothing short of thrilling. 10-12 hr trips are required to target these fish.
We’re also seeing solid numbers of amberjack, which are always a welcome bonus. These hard-pulling, reef-hugging fish are tough to fool but absolutely worth the effort when it comes to the dinner plate.
