"Fishing Cowboy Style" (pictures)

I found these pictures in a brazilian surf fishing forum (the fish wasn't tail hooked, the hook is connected to the line)

That is exactly how Glenn W catches his wahoos. I have seen it in person.

Jer,
that looks like a whiting (sea mullet, kingfish + many other names). Excellent eating! Here in north America they run during the spring and fall months and eat shrimp, crabs and sometimes cut bait.
Good luck catching some of these yourself.

Jer we had that happen on the overnighter down in carolinas with marty and brian. We thought it was a marlin and glenn was on the rod. It ended up being a wahoo that was tail wrapped. I think we got pictures of it somewhere on here

I had the same thing happen to a white marlin a few years ago.

SeaBiscuit, thanks. In Brazil people catch them on shrimp also and love to eat 'em.

I'll catch one sooner or later

Thats cool Jer. Looking forward to hearing about your Kite fishing from the beach.
SeaBiscuit is right, looks like our sea mullet and they are good to eat.
