Fly fishing cobia
A fly rod and line are probably the most commonly used tackle when fishing for cobia. However, a fishing lure is an equally important tool. Baitfish-patterned lures are best. This type of fly sinks and is best cast at high speed. The hook is likely to be cut off if a cobia swoops towards the fly. Next is to learn sight-fishing for cobia.
The first step is to dump the whole fly line into your backing. Allow the line to sink, strip it back quickly and repeat the process. A sinking line can help catch more cobia. You can also use weighted fly flies. If sight casting is difficult, you can also use a sinking line and a weighted fly. Keep a fly rod on hand for hungry cobia.
Fly fishing for tarpon
Fly fishing is the best method to catch big tarpon. Tarpon is not your standard saltwater species. You need to know the basics of fly fishing. The right size of hook and material will make a huge difference in your success rate. Lefty Kreh’s tricker is one of tarpon's most effective patterns. This streamer can be tied on a hook of 2/0, which will propel the fly home.
When fishing for tarpon, you need to be able to target their natural feeding habits. Tarpon are active in the early morning hours so it is best to fish right after the sun rises. This will give you the best chance to catch a strike. Another option is to fish at night when the sun sets for tarpon. But you must keep in mind that tarpon are predatory, so it is advisable to avoid artificial light during the day.
