Ono (Wahoo)
Chasing Ono (Wahoo) off the coast of Ocean View is a thrilling experience for any angler. This area of Hawaii Island offers access to deep, offshore waters where Ono thrive. Targeting areas with temperature breaks or current changes is crucial, as these conditions often concentrate baitfish, which in turn attract Ono. The best time to fish for Ono near Ocean View is typically during the summer and fall months. Trolling at high speeds with lures or live bait is a popular and effective method. A local tip: pay attention to the FADs (Fish Aggregating Devices) deployed offshore, as Ono frequently gather around these structures. Be prepared for a blistering run when an Ono strikes, as they are known for their speed and power. The Ono found off Ocean View are highly sought after for their delicious meat, making them a prized catch. Always check the latest fishing reports and weather conditions before heading out.
