 We actually stopped on our way out and caught our own bait using rod and reel. We used a size 4 hook with small peices of squid. We caught pin fish and blue runners. The pins kinda look like a porgy or spot and the blue runners look like baby tuna. We were baiting our rod with these live. Some weighted down on the bottom and others free lining. Basically on the bottom, half way and near the top. The baracudas we mostly caught on a banana jig. Kinda sight fishing. When we saw them we would cast to them and reel it in on top slow. Then when one turned on it you reel as fast as you can. And let me tell you they swim and hit like lighting.

That Cobia is an awesome catch! Well done BB.
Cobia is a type of cherished food fish for chinese. The tenderness of it is just too fine.
But, cobia's meat tend to turn foul from the very moment it DIED. In Taiwan(ROC) chinese restuarant, the price differrence between a LIVE cobia and a DEAD is almost tripled.
For a live cobia's price, its ard 2000nt - 3000nt (per KG). And as for the DEAD ones, it'll cost much more cheaper which range from 500nt-1000nt at most. And those prices that i've just quoted is COMMERCIALLY bread fish, its far more expensive if u managed to fish a wild cobia out of the sea.
Hope to see more big fellas landed by fellow angler in here.
gd luck guys!
Regards,

Sorry Sage, If you've seen my pics then you know for sure food can distract me. ;D As far as what bit the fish in half we don't know. We were drifting small pin fish (about 3-4 inch) for tarpon when the Mangrove snapper took the bait. While I was reeling it in I just felt a heavy tug and you saw the rest. I don't think tarpon can do that. It could have been a shark or spanish mackeral. They are both in the area, I guess I'll never know. |
