Average speed: 48 mph
The wahoo, distributed worldwide in tropical and subtropical waters, has been recorded swimming at speeds of up to 46.5 mph in short bursts, allowing quick capture of prey. This speed and fighting ability makes them a great challenge in sports fishing circles.
Their growth can be rapid and live up to or more than 5-6 years of age. Their diet is made up of other pelagic fishes, as well as squid. The flesh of the wahoo is white and delicate. Although very favorable for human consumption, little fish tends to be caught for this purpose.
