Fly fishing to 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. Use a baitfish patterned fly. This fly sinks so it is best to cast it 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.
To begin, dump the entire flyline into your backing. After the line has sunk, you should quickly take it out and strip it off again. A sinking line can help catch more cobia. Weighted flies are also available. Sight casting can be difficult so you may also consider using a sinking line with a weighted flee. Keep a fly rod on hand for hungry cobia.
Fly fishing for tarpon
Fly fishing is a great way to catch big Tarpon. Tarpon are not your average saltwater species, so you must know what to look for when choosing a fly pattern. Your success rate will depend on the size of your hook and the material you use. Lefty Kreh’s deceiver pattern is one of the best for tarpon. This streamer can be tied on a hook of 2/0, which will propel 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. Fishing at night for tarpon is also possible, as the sun sets. But you must keep in mind that tarpon are predatory, so it is advisable to avoid artificial light during the day.
