Fly fishing cobia
The most popular tackle for fishing for cobia is a fly rod or line, but a fishing lure can also be useful. A baitfish-patterned fly is the best choice. This fly sinks so it is best to cast it at high speed. If a cobia swoops in and strikes the fly the hook will likely be cut. Next, you can practice sight-fishing to catch cobia.
First, you should dump the entire fly line into your backing. You can let the line sink and then you can quickly remove it again. Sinking lines are a great way to catch more cobia. Weighted flies are also available. If sight casting is difficult, you can also use a sinking line and a weighted fly. Remember, you need to have a ready fly rod 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. The size of the hook and the type of material that you choose will have a significant impact on your success rates. Lefty Kreh’s tricker is one of tarpon's most effective patterns. The streamer is tied onto a 2/0 Hook, which will drive home the fly.
When fishing for tarpon, you need to be able to target their natural feeding habits. 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 chance to catch a strike. Fishing at night for tarpon is also possible, as the sun sets. Keep in mind, however, that tarpon are prey animals so it is important to avoid artificial light during daylight hours.

How To
How to Fish in Freshwater
Freshwater fishing can be described as catching freshwater fish from streams, lakes, rivers and ponds. Common fish species include bass, catfish and crappie as well as trout, trout, sunfish and walleye. There are several different methods used to catch these species of fish. You can use a variety of methods to catch fish such as trolling or casting.
Finding a good spot to catch fish is the first step in any fishing endeavor. This typically means you need to choose a location close to your water supply. Next, choose the equipment you want.
You should use live bait if you want to lure fish into eating it. Live bait is made up of worms (minnows), crickets (frogs), bloodworms (bloodworms), grasshoppers, and any other small insects.
Artificial lures include baits made from plastic, wood, feathers and metal. Artificial lures come a variety of sizes. Artificial lures can mimic natural prey such as minnows and crawfish or shiners and grubs. Many people prefer to use lures because they don't require much skill to cast them into the water. When they land on their target, lures can be set up quickly and easily removed.
Casting is a great way to learn if you don't want to use live bait, or just want to experiment with new techniques. Casting is one the most straightforward ways to catch fish. It requires very little effort and no special skills.
A rod, reel, line and sinker, floatant, hooks and weights are all you need. A simple pole can be used to cast. In order to cast you simply hold the rod vertically above the surface of the water. Slowly lower your rod so it touches the water. As soon as it does this the line starts to unwind from the reel. The lure will drop into the water once the line is at its full length.
Trolling is another technique for catching fish. Trolling is the use of a boat to transport a lure across the water.
Fishing can be fun and rewarding. There are many ways to fish, and each type has its benefits and disadvantages. Some methods are easier than others, but they all require practice.
