In 2011, the Northeast Florida Wahoo Shootout was born. The first year yielded an 85-boat field and was won with a three-fish aggregate total of 180 pounds. In year two, 88 boats competed, and 188 pounds won it.
The first two years the tournament was won by the same captain, Rob Rowe. Everyone thought he was the luckiest guy there was, catching big wahoo consistently. As it turns out it wasn’t luck at all. He was fishing where the big wahoo lived. Rowe was fishing inshore of the ledge nearly 15 miles in 130 feet of water on an area of live bottom holding bait while high speed trolling. Nobody ever saw him because who would think to look in there?
