Fly fishing for cobia
The most popular tackle for fishing for cobia is a fly rod or line, but a fishing lure can also be useful. Use a baitfish-patterned flies. This type fly sinks and can be cast at high speeds. If a cobia swoops in and strikes the fly the hook will likely be cut. Next, you can practice sight-fishing to catch cobia.
The first step is to dump the whole fly line into your backing. Let the line sink for a while, then quickly strip it back and start over. Sinking lines can catch more cobia than other methods. It is also possible to use weighted flies. A sinking line and a weighted fly are also options if sight casting is difficult. You should always have a fly rod ready for hungry cobia.
Fly fishing for tarpon
Fly fishing is the best option if you want to catch big tarpon. Tarpon are not your average saltwater species, so you must know what to look for when choosing a fly pattern. The size of the hook and the type of material that you choose will have a significant impact on your success rates. Lefty Kreh’s deceiver is one the most popular patterns for tarpon. This streamer can be tied on a hook of 2/0, which will propel the fly home.
Fishing for tarpon requires that you are able to target their natural feeding patterns. Tarpon are most active in the morning, so fish only after the sun has set. This will give your best chance of landing a strike. If the sun is setting, you can fish at night for Tarpon. However, tarpon can be predatory so avoid artificial lighting during the day.

How To
How to perfectly cast a fishing rod
When casting a fishing rod, the first thing to do is use your wrist to pull the handle towards the water. The rod should be held slightly away from the body so that it is parallel to the ground. Move the rod forward by keeping the rod's tip perpendicular the water. If the tip hits the water's surface before the line reaches the bottom, the fish won't bite. You can increase the distance between the tip of the rod and the surface of the water by practicing this technique.
Here are some tips for casting a rod if you're not confident yet.
The first thing you should do is to hold the rod at your chest. By doing this, the rod will move in the right direction and you won't have to bend.
If you are casting a large rod, it is a good idea to put a tripod on the shoreline. This will allow you to secure the rod while still holding the reel.
Third, you may want to consider buying a small reel instead of an expensive one. A low-cost spinning reel will allow for you to cast greater distances. It will also improve your hand eye coordination.
A fishing pole holder is another option. These holders hold the rod securely and keep it upright. They are easy to store after use and protect the rod against damage.
Fifth, practice casting until you get used to the motion. Casting a fish rod is a skill that takes time.
Sixth, patience is key to successful fishing. Waiting for the right moment to strike is key to successful fishing. Then, work hard to get the fish in.
