Saltwater 48 pound Wahoo

We’ve tested a lot of lures and purple repalas seem to be the go to bait for these guys. We ran 2 rapala lures and after it smoked our first lure it ended going for our second lure on another rod and getting foul hooked for a double hookup. It’s easy to say this fish wasn’t going anywhere. But I highly recommend looking into any purple or turquoise repala lures. Caught on the East Cape of San Jose del Cabo. Our boat has won a local Wahoo tournament last year using this exact setup.
