Is always a great pleasure, listening to this gentelment. You te really learn a lot! Thanks a million capt. Mike. Greetings from Holland.

[@PopeVader305]

absolutely love the seminar. I am a novice to fishing but by watching all you're videos. I have gained decades of experience. Thank you Sir and keep up the great work. By the way im the noob trolling with Senators reels and ballyhoos. Targeting kings/cudas/mahi and hitting on 30 plus lb wahoos.

[@jeremyrowe4339]

When I woke up this morning, I had one goal for my first trip offshore in my boat. The goal was to catch something! Well we traveled out to West Rock and it got a little nautical but it wasn’t too bad. The fuel gauge was malfunctioning so we made the call to turn around and come back, just in case, we wanted to be safe and not have to call sea tow on first trip for fuel. I owe a lot of thanks to my future “BIL” Cory Norville who took me out and gave me the basics. He helped me with the weather and other odds and ends. I also want to thank Florida Sport Fishing Television on KZbin. Capt Mike walks you through how to set up a spread and what tackle to use. Always wanted to fish offshore but never knew how to start. Chase whatever you feel you can reach and go full steam ahead thanks again to these two and also myself for all the research I have put in. I think all in all we went out about 30 to 35 miles. Via Facebook! Thanks Capt. Mike check out my FTO photos

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Thank you.

[@joseangelrodriguez8220]

excellent Seminar !!!!

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Thanks

[@mhlanombembe5510]

When yu sit and get thought yu have more understanding of why things happen like they do.... One time I was trolling lures and fish came hit my lure so hard such that I felt I'm gonna loose all my line within a minute as reel was psychoticly sceaming...Guess what I paniced and stopped the boat.. still fish was moving very fast peeling line off the reel but eventually hooks fell off the fish and I lost the fish... Now as I was sitting here listening to this seminar its like yu talking to me because the errors I did were exactly what yu covered .. Thanks a lot for this seminar I'm looking forward to listen to more of them.. Yu are well vest and strategic... I hope I meet the same fish that escaped I will teach it a lesson after this seminar!!!!!

[@FloridaSportFishing]

I hope you cross paths with the same fish too! Thank you for watching. - Capt Mike

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Thank you for watching! - Capt Mike

[@andycho831]

Another amazing seminar capt. Could you do one on tuna pop/jig/chunk as well? Big fan from Texas!

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Yes, it is in the works for this upcoming spring. Thanks for watching. - Capt Mike

[@joshdewitt8796]

“Show of hands, how fast can a wahoo swim? …About 60 miles per hour” Wait what

[@758Dino]

Can you troll for wahoo at night or before sun comes up on your way to the fishing ground?

[@brennanmahoney9591]

I have been interested in live baiting bonita and black fin tuna for wahoo. I understand the brindle method, I have done it with circle hooks but do you know how they are doing it for wahoo. Is there a singer? Is it just a king mackerel rig scaled up? If it is what size hooks should I use. Thank you for any advice you give.

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Yes, a standard stringer rig but larger, depending on size of bullet you may want to bump up to 9/0 hook instead of 7/0. With goggle-eye size bullets, you can get away with same rig.

[@MiamiPrepper]

Wow! Thank you for the great seminar Captain Mike. I just moved to Islamorada and I have one question: How are you tying the mono fishing line to the wind-on leader? Can't wait to try your techniques. Cheers!

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Thanks for watching. Double the end of the mono with a Bimini Twist or Spider Hitch, and attach the wind-on leader with a simple loop-to-loop connection. If you're not sure how to do it, there are simple instructions directly on back of Diamond Fishing Products Wind-On Leaders package. - Capt Mike

[@earlhinds3143]

Great video ..i fish out of Haulover planning the fish two rods with Zuri Bonitas. should i used the same size lead weight on both rods? and how far back each rod..thank you..

[@FloridaSportFishing]

If you're going to fish two rods with Yo Zuri Bonitos, I would suggest one with no weight way back, like at least 300 ft. and one shorter with a 16 oz. trolling lead. You can however, fish them both with no added weight.

[@SaltwaterOutlaw]

Great video Cap Mike, I really enjoy your show and magazine. We are going to be fishing out of Hillsboro this winter so I look forward to working the Hot Zone you talked about. I'd love to catch your next seminar, when and where is it going to be?

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Late January at CHAOS. Schedule to be determined/posted on our Facebook page soon. - Capt Mike

[@SaltwaterOutlaw]

Great, I will keep up on your FB page!

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

AWESOME seminar! We will be posting a video on our channel using these exact tactics shortly! KZbin Channel: Florida Fishing Couple

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Thanks for watching. - Capt Mike

[@vbritt3990]

15 knots - DO you need to adjust that speed for current? If you have a current of 3 knots going south to north are you traveling 15 knots GPS speed regardless of whether you are traveling North or South? Great Video, thanks for sharing!

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Yes, we're constantly adjusting speed based on conditions, wind, current, sea state, etc.Unless its flat calm with no current, its never set it and forget it.

[@vbritt3990]

But how do you determine the 'right' speed? are you going just slow enough to keep the lures in the water?

[@steveplaisance5923]

PLEASE tell me the purpose/need for the wind-on leader between main line and weight?

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Not 100% necessary, i happen to use that same set of rods for nighttime swordfishing. - Capt Mike

[@juant9408]

Great Video Mike. Do you have one on Dolphin? Thank you very much. P.S God bless you for saving that guy.

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Thanks for watching, dolphin seminar coming in 2017 for sure!

[@juant9408]

I'm around the corner from your office in Sample. New to fishing. Have a 24 center console Proline Trolling for Dolphin is pretty exited but I just can't get them lol Looking forward to the video. Thank you.

[@tony97gt]

Juan Tambolini try "running and gunning as well". Ride around and look out for debris floating and then drop your lines in the water a few hundred yards away and troll past the debris. Keep your eyes open for birds as well. Mix up your routine and you'll increase your odds.

[@christianmatson9712]

+FloridaSportFishing when you said to drop down a heavy diamond jig and burn it back up were you still talking about fishing around debris? So are you saying that I should try dropping the jig down next to the pallet or on drop-offs etc?

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Yes, when you stumble across offshore structure, drop a jig deep and burn it back.

[@briansupermag3918]

Capt Mike I am up here in NJ and was wondering if Wahoo can be targeted up here? Or as you say are they an accidental catch?. Thx for these as I am learning.

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Accidental up there, don't waste your time trying. Trust me, I know, I grew up fishing New Jersey, know it very well. No wahoo. - Capt Mike

[@briansupermag3918]

Florida Sport Fishing thx Capt Mike kind of what I thought. I guess I will have to wait till we move to the Carolinas next year. Either north or south just need to leave NJ for better weather and better way of life. Thx for all your videos. Really enjoy them. Brian

[@miguelandres7661]

Here in Puerto Rico we have the same problem with barracudas like in the Bahamas

[@GoshindoTanaka]

tell me about it am from mayaguez you had to fish at least 500 ft with the monel trolling wire here

[@victors8924]

Miguel Andres, that very true 😂. I'm from Aguadilla and there days that the only thing you catch are big barracudas. I usually go 5 to 7mile out of el desecheo island and I always catch 1 or 2 wahoo between 35 and 80 lbs.

[@GoshindoTanaka]

miguel thats some nice wahoo i preefer the espogas o el sico drop i only go for wahoo with trolling wire your catching in north of desesheo ?

[@victors8924]

Yes sir, but you have to be there very early before the sunrise. I usually start trolling .5 mile before reaching the north side of el desecheo and I usually that where I catch my first one, I usually use the # 30 white and red rapala.

[@GoshindoTanaka]

am not so early i go around 8 and 9 am with monel trolling wire with 16 oz lead with ilander with ballyhoo

[@waltn3202]

Your seminars are great. What size yozuri bonita are you using. I will be fishing on yankee capts and hubbards florida fisherman.

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Thank you for watching. I like the older version Yo Zuri Bonitos with the smooth finish, its like 6"-7" long.

[@earlhinds3143]

thank you i will let you know what happened..thanks again captain..

[@ggrizzaffi]

What kind of paint are you using to paint your Yozuri Bonita lures?

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Mercury Phantom Black outboard engine paint. - Capt Mike

[@JaysBlue]

First! Nice vid!

[@Sleeplyfish]

What's da shock cord for

[@dixondjallen6620]

Wow my biggest aas was 72lbs!

[@BassFlatsBeyond]

Can you please explain the wind on leader in more detail.

[@FloridaSportFishing]

At the end of your monofilament running line, you create a double line with a Bimini twist or similar knot. This is where you'll connect your wind-on leader with a loop to loop connection, a cat's paw. The wind-on leader is typically heavier than the main running line and may be 25-150 ft. or more in length depending on application. With the loop to loop connection, you can wind it right on the reel as the knot will slip through the guides. For further explanation call me 954.942.7261 - Capt Mike

[@BassFlatsBeyond]

Florida Sport Fishing that was awesome, thank you.

[@connershupe7975]

what types of cable do you use (brand)

[@FloridaSportFishing]

American Fishing Wire, single strand and multi strand depending on application. - Capt Mike

[@tntkembangapi]

i often get double triple strike on wahoo, how com it's solitaire ?

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Yes, there are certainly occasions, especially in the Bahamas when wahoo will congregate due to prime feeding conditions or an abundance of forage. Here along Florida's southeast coast, its usually one at a time. - Capt Mike

[@trevorforbes2382]

No cow bells ?

[@connershupe7975]

what is that islander style bait called

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Wahoo Wreckers from Tormenter Tackle are very similar. - Capt Mike

[@connershupe7975]

Florida Sport Fishing OK thanks

[@rayrockusa]

is fishing out of Marathon better than other parts of florida ?

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Excellent reef fishing, great offshore fishing, fantastic flats/bridge fishing, etc etc etc

[@rayrockusa]

okay thanks, I am considering a property there and thought it may be better to be in the keys as to be able to fish both the atlantic and gulf from here. also hide from winds in winter.

[@barbaraclark4327]

what is your biggest Wahoo ? where ?

[@scott4970]

Hey Mike, jut came across the channel. Can you increase the video content of the fishing trips? We want to hear the info, but most people would rather see on the water footage while you're speaking, even just backwash trolling. (no offense). p.s. Hey, do you remember that graphic designer from Ma that moved to Florida and offered to work for free, and languished for 3 months butchering sales calls?

[@FloridaSportFishing]

I kind of remember, how long ago was that?

[@scott4970]

It was back when the magazine was getting ready to go from 6 issues to 12 a year, and still called South Florida Sport Fishing. Small office in Pompano beach with techno music playing. I discovered the Florida Sport Fishing TV videos shortly after my request for fishing footage during the seminar videos by the way. Actually planning on targeting wahoo here in Mass later this summer southeast of the Vineyard around the high flyers where we catch small mahi. Been reading that people have been getting some the past couple seasons when jigging deep or fast trolling those pots.@@FloridaSportFishing

[@JALVAREZAVIATION]

I have a penn senator that I would like to set up. With 30lb mono it has a capacity of 300 yards. Would that be enough for an offshore set up? For Sails/Mahi Thanks!

[@trevorbradley1268]

i would recommend at least 50 lbs braid because you can get more line capacity... then i would go with 60-80lb fluorocarbon for leader

[@asherogden8361]

Jorge for sails and Mahi that's plenty

[@asherogden8361]

trevor bradley not for sails n mahi

[@victors8924]

Jorge, I have caught lot of 20 to 35 lb dorado with a 30 lb mono and have never had any problem.

[@flash521]

Actually 184 lb. caught in Cabo San Lucas - W a h o o o o o o o !
