Fly fishing for cobia
Fly rods and lines are the most widely used fishing gear for cobia fishing. But, it is important to consider the lure that you use when fishing. Baitfish-patterned lures are best. This type of fly sinks, so you should cast it at high speeds. The hook will most likely be removed if a cobia strikes the fly. Next, you can practice sight-fishing to catch cobia.
You should first dump all fly line in your backing. After the line has sunk, you should quickly take it out and strip it off again. Sinking lines can catch more cobia than other methods. Weighted flies are also available. Sight casting can be difficult so you may also consider using a sinking line with a weighted flee. 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 a different species than your average saltwater fish, so you need to know what to look at when choosing a fly-fishing pattern. The right size hook and material can make all the difference in your success. 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 usually active at dawn so you should fish for them after the sun has gone down. This will give your best chance of landing a strike. You can also try fishing at night for tarpon, when the sun sets. Remember that tarpon will eat artificial light so you should avoid using it during the day.

How To
How to Cast a Fishing Rod Easily
The first thing you must know when casting a fishing rod is to use your wrist to move the rod's handle smoothly towards the water. Keep the rod slightly off the body, so the line is parallel to it. The rod should be moved forward with the tip perpendicular towards the water surface. The fish will not bite if the tip touches the water's surface prior to the line reaching the bottom. This technique will increase the distance between the rod's tip and the water surface.
Here are some tips for casting a rod if you're not confident yet.
To begin, keep the rod as close to you chest as possible. This will allow you to control the rod's movement without having to bend.
A tripod can be placed on the shoreline, or on a rock ledge, to cast a heavy rod. By doing this, you'll be able to rest the rod securely while holding the reel.
A third option is to buy a smaller reel than an expensive one. A cheap spinning reel can be used to cast longer distances, and it will also help you with your hand-eye coordination.
Fourth, you might also consider buying a fishing pole holder. These holders hold the rod securely and keep it upright. These holders can be stored away easily after each use, and they protect the rod from being damaged.
Fifth, practice casting until the motion becomes natural. It takes time to master the art of casting a fishing rod.
Sixth, patience is the key to successful fishing. Wait for the right time to strike, then work hard to catch the fish.
