Fishing guide

Mahi-Mahi (Coryphaena hippurus), also known as Common Dolphinfish, is a predatory medium-sized pelagic fish. It is very common in tropical and subtropical waters of all oceans. It can reach up to 40 kilograms in weight and more than 2 meters in length.

This fish lives and hunts near the surface in the open ocean. Its young flock into small groups, and large fish lead a solitary lifestyle. It feeds on zooplankton, flying fish, mackerel, squid, and crabs. It hunts during the day, but can also be active on bright nights.

You can spot the location of Mahi-Mahi on the high seas thanks to birds, Sargassum algae, and a variety of debris that float on the surface and around which forage fish gather. You can catch it by casting and high-speed trolling with artificial lures, as well as live bait.

If you prefer to use natural baits, then the best way to catch Mahi-Mahi would be to use Japanese Flying Squid on a size #5/0 hook.

If you are more into artificial lures, you should go for some Trolling Octopuses.

The most successful lure is Black/Purple Trolling Octopus 85 g, #7/0.
