## Resource

This week, we sit down with Chris Vecsey from J&M Tackle to break down how to actually target wahoo—not just catch them by accident. If you've ever picked one up trolling between spots and wondered if you could do it on purpose, this episode is for you. Chris walks through a simple, effective trolling setup that works for everyday anglers running center consoles, not just big sportfish boats. We dig into where to find wahoo closer to shore than most people think, how to read conditions like current, structure, and bait, and why slow trolling is often more effective than high-speed spreads. Chris also lays out a practical four-rod spread, gear recommendations, and small adjustments that can make a big difference in getting bites and actually landing fish. If you've ever wanted to dedicate a trip to wahoo and do it right, this episode gives you a clear starting point.
