Mick Devaney and son Ross caught these two nice Wahoo on the “Katherine B” last week. Two for two in a double header. The Wahoo have not been thick this year so far but they just might be coming in a bit late. The big one here caught by Ross went 22 kg.
Right now the fish are here and the very few boats going out are getting action. 15 years ago September was the best part of the season with incredible catches. Looks like it might be happening again. For me, it will be Wahoo fishing and a late Marlin as a bonus. Katherine has gone back to school after a long had year with wonderful results. I am looking forward to her first Wahoo at half term.

Claire got her second wahoo but earned it the hard way after a 1:1/2 hour battle on 20 lb.
The fish was hooked in the corner of the jaw and gave the young lady the fight of her life.
This is a 60 lb fish and serious work on 20 lb gear. Like trying to hang onto a Race horse at high speed. Chris wrote me a few days ago and said ” I had a really good time and I never expected the Wahoo fishing to be that good, and the night out at Viola topped it off and the boy managed a big T-bone with a pint! ”
