Wahoo Fishing in the Hilton Head Island Area
The gulf stream is around 60 to 80 miles from shore in the Hilton Head Island area, so plan on doing a 10 to 12 hour fishing charter if you’re looking to go out and fish for wahoo in this area. Many charters will target them in this area. The peak bite is fall through winter.
Wahoo Fishing Tips
They are often caught in very deep water. Many offshore fishing charters will troll for other fish, but they are known to set up one rod very deep for an occasional wahoo. While some fishing charters may go out and target these fish, most of the time, wahoo are considered a bonus fish. Either way, they are a lot of fun to catch and they provide some excellent table fare.
