Nice Ling Capt DQ and pretty white meat to those not familiar with them. Did you sight cast to him? They are powerful fish, and we love catching them when they run up into sound around Ocracoke on the NC Outer Banks.

Yeah Tommy, its full on Cobia run in the Panhandle right now. Its all sight fishing, there's tournaments form Orange Beach to Panama City every weekend till May right now.

It looks like a interstate hwy out there every day and weekend. Cobia is bringing about $4.50 a pound headon gutted if your licensed to sale right now. But it's some fine eating fish as you well know already. Damn good grill.

Harry, after we talked Friday, couldn't stand it. But it was around 3-4' seas today and made it real fun fishing out of tower today. Whip my but being in the tower most of the day. But its gonna be right tasty on the grill though.

Thats what we went looking the first time you came down. If the weather would have been descent this last time. Thats what you would have had on the line hopefully. SOB's fight like crazy, pound for pound they are tuff fight.
