Eco details:
Wahoo grow and reproduce quickly, two traits that help them withstand fishing pressure. However, little research has been done on the health of wahoo populations, so their stock status is generally unknown.
Most wahoos are caught by hook-and-line or longlines. The latter can result in significant bycatch of threatened sea turtles.
