Fly fishing for cobia
Although a fly rod, line and fly are the most used tools for fishing for cobias, the fishing lure is equally important. Use a baitfish-patterned flies. This type of fly sinks and is best cast at high speed. If a cobia swoops in and strikes the fly the hook will likely be cut. Next, sight-fishing is a good way to get cobia.
You should first dump all fly line in your backing. You can let the line sink and then you can quickly remove it again. Using a sinking line can help you catch more cobia than you might otherwise. It's also possible to use weighted flying flies. If sight casting is difficult, a sinking and weighted line can be used. A ready-to-use fly rod is essential for cobia that are hungry.
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 pattern is one of the best for tarpon. This streamer is tied to a 2/0 hook which will drive it 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 chance to catch a strike. If the sun is setting, you can fish at night for Tarpon. You should remember that tarpon are predatory and it is best to avoid artificial lights during the day.
