Fly fishing to 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 fly. This type of fly sinks, so you should cast it at high speeds. The hook is likely to be cut off if a cobia swoops towards the fly. Next, practice sight-fishing cobia.
To begin, dump the entire flyline into your backing. You can let the line sink and then you can quickly remove it again. A sinking line can help catch more cobia. Weighted flies are also available. If sight casting is difficult, a sinking and weighted line can be used. Keep a fly rod on hand for hungry cobia.
Fly fishing for tarpon
Fly fishing is the best option if you want to catch big tarpon. 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 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 you the best opportunity to get 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.
