Mahi-Mahi

Wanderlust photo series – www.anhede.se

The mahi-mahi or common dolphinfish is a surface-dwelling ray-finned fish found in off-shore temperate, tropical and subtropical waters worldwide.

The name mahi-mahi means very strong in Hawaiian. In other languages the fish is known as dorade coryphène, lampuga, llampuga, lampuka, lampuki, rakingo, calitos or maverikos.

The photo was taken with the fish and myself dragged behind the boat. It was super hard with all the waves and a bit scary considering the fish we caught after this one was a 2.5 meter shark. Will post behind the scenes photos later.
