snelly Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Following the crossing of the coast by Cyclone Ului on Sunday we had a couple of small WOO's ( Windows of opportunity ) in the wind on Sunday and Monday morning. A work mate wanted me to take a friend of his fishing so when he offered to look after things at work for me I arranged a quick trip to some of the local wrecks. The first spot did not produce and the weather was tolerable so we headed a few more miles out to another wreck. On this wreck I managed a good hook up ealry on but pulled the hook after a lengthy battle. I soon had anpther good hit and this produced a noce Cobia. After this we got a few smaller School Mackerel which can be a pain when not using wire. The other surprise was a Narrow Barred Mackerel ( King Mackerel ) with straight 20lb mono tippet. We had some rain heading our way so decided to make for home about 11-00am. This frist part of the trip was OK but soon got hammered with wind and rain but the Redfisher travelled through the nasty conditions. A nice way to start the day rather then going to work.

Floatin Pretty Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 Thats great. We fish the annual spring migration of cobes here in the panhandle of Florida. They are tons of fun to sight fish and great on the grill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
