Have caught a few and have found a slightly higher troll speed (8-9 kt) helps with a higer speed jig ...door knobs etc... 30 ft behind the boat....and when hooked leave the boat in gear to keep their head pointing at the boat. They dont have the shoulders of a large Dodo or Tuna so keep them pointed the right way and it can be a short fight..Good Luck!

Knock yourself out. Personally I prefer to remain at the top of the food chain.

I plan to continue to stay in my boat to ensure there is never any ambiguity about who is the hunter and who is the hunted.

On one of my first driving trips to Cabo, my buddy and I car topped a 14ft valco. We made friends with some of the pangeros who fished out of La Playita, and they let us camp infront of their "tackle store". We then followed them out to the Gordo banks the next mourning, and started to troll. These guys were doing everything they could to get us on the fish. Once one of them would hook something they would motion us to start trolling in a circle around them. On one pass we hooked a 50lb wahoo. Man, talk about exciting. We also caught a small marlin, and several dorado, along with a bunch of other stuff on the same trip. I don't know if the pangeros thought we were brave or stupid. I do remember having lots of laughs with them though.

Oh, the lure was a black and purple 'wahoo special'. The kind with that wierd shiny stuff on it.
