What do you bait Wahoo with, live or chunks.? Or does it matter?

My understanding is artificial lures on a wire leader, trolled at a
fairly fast speed (15 kts +).
Two years ago I bought several lures which are called "Wahoo Magnets".
They look like this:

On the way home from our last Caribbean trip I was trolling one on the
north side of Little Inagua Island when it got hit by something really
aggressive. We never saw what it was or got it under control. After
spooling out 200 yards of line against a full drag, the reel started
smoking and the clutches burned out. The last 200 yards went out in
free spool at very high speed.
