Never caught a monster like the ones in the post, but have caught a couple in the 30lb range thank to advise of Wade Hatton.

This is more about catching my first wahoo, than the size.

Looking at the pics he posted reminds me of the day I meet him in Outcast sometime around May 2005. My cousin and Iwerehaving no luck putting tuna or wahoo in the boat, so I went to outcast to seek advice. When I got to Outcast I asked the guy at the counter if they sold "knocker head" lures and if he thought they were good for tuna and wahoo. The young man told me that if i wanted to know what was good for tuna I should ask the man standing next to the far wall. I walked over and introduced myself and told him i wanted to know what was the best lures for tuna and I had heard that knocker heads were supposed to be good. He told me that his name was Wade and asked what type of spread we were running. He said that knocker heads were ok but not his choicce. He then went on to tell me that he never leaves the dock without a certain islander lure, how to put the spread out, what speed, what to look for in the water..... and so on. I also told him that we were getting knock downs from whaoo but the only thing we were doing was feeding them. He told me to release the bail after the first hit and the wahoo would come back around. We have been catching fish ever since. We have caught more yellow fin than we have wahoo.

My cousin and I owe Wade a big thanks for his help (:bowdown). He didn't know me from the man in the moon and gave me a private fishing clinic standing there in Outcast.We still will not leave the dock without the islander lure wade recommnded.
