Fly fishing for cobia
Fly rods and lines are the most widely used fishing gear for cobia fishing. But, it is important to consider the lure that you use when fishing. Baitfish-patterned lures are best. This type of fly sinks and is best cast at high speed. The hook will most likely be removed if a cobia strikes the fly. The next step is to practice sight-fishing for cobia.
To begin, dump the entire flyline into your backing. Then let the line sink. Next, remove the line quickly and do the same thing again. Using a sinking line can help you catch more cobia than you might otherwise. You can also use weighted fly flies. A sinking line and a weighted fly are also options if sight casting is difficult. Remember, you need to have a ready fly rod for hungry cobia.
Fly fishing to tarpon
Fly fishing is the best method to catch big tarpon. Tarpon are not your typical saltwater species. This is why it is so important to be able to choose the right fly pattern. The right size hook and material can make all the difference in your success. Lefty Kreh’s tricker is one of tarpon's most effective patterns. This streamer is tied on an 2/0 hook that will drive the fly home.
Tarpon fishing requires you to understand the natural feeding habits of the fish. Tarpon are active during the early morning hours, so try to fish for them right after the sun has risen. This will ensure that you have the best chance of getting a strike. Also, try fishing at night to catch tarpon after the sun goes down. Keep in mind, however, that tarpon are prey animals so it is important to avoid artificial light during daylight hours.
