Wahoo

Wahoo can be distinguished by the iridescent blue-green color on the back, the silvery sides with a pattern of vertical blues bars, and small scarcely visible scales. The colors on the Wahoo will fade rapidly upon death. The mouth is large and both upper and lower jaws have a somewhat sharper appearance which contain sharp teeth. Their size can get up to 8 feet and can weigh up to 180 pounds. They can be found in tropical and subtropical waters worldwide and tend to be solitary fish, but occasionally are found in small, loose schools. They are a fast fish and can reach speeds up to 60 mph. Their diet consists of various fishes and squid.
