Since Cobia will be moving in soon and I now have a boat with a tower, could some of you Cobia experts give up a little advice on what kind of lure to throw at them?

3oz jig in a bright color with a squid head attached to the hook.  Just the eye and tenticles is what i mean by head.  60lb. mono leader about 15"long, and you've got it made!

Live Eels are hard to beat. I usually tie a 7/0 Owner J hook to about 2 ft. of 60# Flourocarbon.

Hook the eel and lay him a cooler with a mixture of Ice and Water. The cold water will make him calm down till you are ready to use him. Once you pitch him out in front of a Cobe he will come to life, the Cobe will eat him, You will come to life, and then you will eat the Cobe.

It's a wonderful circle, isn't it!!!!!

There are alot of things a Cobe will eat. Pin fish, crabs, catfish..... Jigs are always a mainstay on any boat as well. Just go to any tackle store from now till June and they will have dozens of them in an array of colors and styles.

Throw a ruby on 3 ft of 60 lb fluro with a blood knot, and hold on.

You can even work him like a lure if you want!!
