Fly fishing to 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. Use a baitfish patterned fly. This fly sinks and should be cast at high speed. If a cobia swoops in and strikes the fly the hook will likely be cut. Next, practice sight-fishing cobia.
The first step is to dump the whole fly line into your backing. You can let the line sink and then you can quickly remove it again. A sinking line will help you catch more cobia. It is also possible to use weighted flies. A sinking line and a weighted fly are also options if sight casting is difficult. Keep a fly rod on hand for hungry cobia.
Fly fishing for Tarpon
If you are interested in catching a big tarpon, fly fishing is the way to go. 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. The Lefty Kreh's deceiver is one of the most successful patterns for tarpon. This streamer is tied on a 2/0 hook, which will drive the fly home.
Tarpon fishing requires you to understand the natural feeding habits of the fish. Tarpon are active during the early morning hours, so try to fish for them right after the sun has risen. This will give you the best opportunity to get a strike. If the sun is setting, you can fish at night for Tarpon. But you must keep in mind that tarpon are predatory, so it is advisable to avoid artificial light during the day.

How To
How to Perfectly Cast a Fishing Rod
Casting a fishing pole requires that you use your wrist to guide the rod's handle toward the water. To ensure that the rod is parallel to ground, it should be held at an angle. As you move the rod forward, ensure that the rod tip is perpendicular with the water's surface. The fish will not bite if the tip touches the water's surface prior to the line reaching the bottom. This technique can help increase the distance between your rod tip and the water's surface.
Here are some tips to help you cast a rod confidently.
The first thing you should do is to hold the rod at your chest. You will be able to easily control the rod’s direction without having your back bent.
If you are casting a large rod, it is a good idea to put a tripod on the shoreline. You can rest the rod securely, while also holding the reel.
Third, consider getting a small reel over a more expensive one. A cheaper spinning reel will let you cast farther distances and help you improve your hand-eye coordination.
Fourth, you may also want to consider purchasing a fishing pole holder. These holders hold the rod securely and keep it upright. These holders are easy to store and protect your rod from damage.
Fifth, practice casting until the motion becomes natural. It takes time to master the art of casting a fishing rod.
Sixth, patience is key to successful fishing. You must wait for the right moment to strike and then fight hard to bring the fish in.
