So here it is.....my first attempt at Polespearing Wahoo.......
43.75 LB, 37 LB, and 24LB.......... Manny Puig with a 6' JBL Extension and a skinny slip tip. First two were stoned, third fish nearly pulled me into the transom and took off for some 100-200 meters...... Many thanks to Cap'n James and Big Jim West aboard Bermuda's best Charter boat, ''WOUND UP'' Bones

The fish were chummed up behind a sportfishing boat and I dropped in off the stern......The fish were slightly wary but were not ''scared'', the first two were
seemingly watching me as they approached the chum and as I was motionless apart from pivoting the spear, I was able to get good spine shots and ''stone'' them both. The third fish was a moving target about 15 feet below the surface. Remember I was using a spear about 13' long so the tip was at least 7' from my hand, and the fish 2-3 feet beyond that .......We had another one yesterday AND a near miss with a Yellowfin Tuna, so this summer should see some interesting developments!
