Fly fishing for 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 flies. This type of fly sinks and is best cast at high speed. The hook will most likely be removed if a cobia strikes the fly. Next, you can practice sight-fishing to catch 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. A ready-to-use fly rod is essential for cobia that are hungry.
Fly fishing for tarpon
Fly fishing is the best option if you want to catch big tarpon. Tarpon are not like other saltwater species so it is important to know what to look out for when choosing a fly fishing pattern. Your success rate will depend on the size of your hook and the material you use. The Lefty Kreh's deceiver is one of the most successful patterns for tarpon. The streamer is tied onto a 2/0 Hook, which will drive home the fly.
You need to understand their natural feeding habits when fishing for tarpon. Tarpon are usually active at dawn so you should fish for them after the sun has gone down. This will give you the best chance to catch a strike. You can also try fishing at night for tarpon, when the sun sets. But you must keep in mind that tarpon are predatory, so it is advisable to avoid artificial light during the day.

How To
How to Perfectly Cast a Fishing Rod
Casting a fishing pole requires that you use your wrist to guide the rod's handle toward the water. The rod should be held at a slight angle from the body so that the line is parallel to the ground. Keep the rod's tip parallel to the water when you move it forward. If the tip of the rod touches the water's surface, fish won’t bite. This technique can help increase the distance between your rod tip and the water's surface.
These tips will help you feel more comfortable casting a fishing rod.
Begin by holding the rod close to your chest. You can control the rod's direction by this method without having to bend down.
Second, when casting a heavy rod, you may want to set up a tripod on the shoreline or on a rock ledge. By doing this, you'll be able to rest the rod securely while holding the reel.
You might also consider purchasing a small reel rather 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.
A fishing pole holder might be another option. These holders can hold your rod securely while keeping 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. Casting a fishing line takes practice.
Sixth, patience and perseverance are the keys to fishing success. Wait for the right time to strike, then work hard to catch the fish.
