This type fly sinks and can be cast at high speeds. The hook will be likely to be cut off when a cobia swoops over and strikes the fly. Next, practice sight-fishing cobia.

Weighted flies are also available. 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 for tarpon
Fly fishing is the best option if you want to catch big tarpon. Tarpon are not like other saltwater species so it is important to know what to look out for when choosing a fly fishing pattern. The right size of hook and material will make a huge difference in your success rate. Lefty Kreh’s deceiver is one the most popular patterns for tarpon. This streamer is tied on an 2/0 hook that will drive the fly home.
You need to understand their natural feeding habits when fishing for tarpon. 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 opportunity to get a strike. Another option is to fish at night when the sun sets for tarpon. Remember that tarpon will eat artificial light so you should avoid using it during the day.

How do you clean your fishing gear?
There are many cleaning options for fishing equipment. Some are very simple while others require advanced techniques. You can use soap and warm water. Always rinse your item after washing it. There is a possibility that dirt may remain inside the item, which can lead to bacteria growth. If this happens, it can lead to bad odors and even more serious infections. This can be prevented by drying the items thoroughly before storing them. You should also avoid touching the item's surfaces when cleaning. If you touch something dirty, you risk transferring germs onto the object.
Apart from using soap, water, there are many ways you can improve the quality and performance of your fishing gear. You may want to use different detergents or solvents, depending on the type and model of your fishing gear. Certain things are best avoided as they can cause damage to your goods. One of these things is bleach. Bleach is known to dissolve plastic and metal, so you shouldn't ever use it to clean your fishing gear. Use warm water and a dishwashing liquid instead. You should only use dishwashing liquids made specifically for cleaning fish. Dishwashing liquids have enzymes and chemical that help to break down organic material such as scales. They also contain surfactants which remove dirt from surfaces. A stain remover is recommended if you have concerns about stain removal.

Applying stain removal products directly to areas where the oil and fat are located will remove the stain while not damaging the underlying materials.
