Very tasty fish - known locally as mahi-mahi. usually found offshore in season by trolling around weed lines and flotsam. Bulls often run 50+ lbs and the smaller "schoolies" 5+ lbs and up.

One of the fastest-growing fish, thought to live no more than 5 years; swimming speed is estimated at 50 knots; spawns in warm ocean currents throughout much of the year; young found in sargassum weed; feeds on flying fish and squid. Excellent eating. High speed trolling w/ artificials, looking for boards or flotsam, weed lines, etc is one approved method. If you find some flotsam, take a few passes around for the occasional wahoo or Marlin lurking about, then change to light tackle and have fun with the "schoolies", 8-15lb dolphin.
