6/13 SWANSBORO... Cobia, Kings, and More! - FISH'N4LIFE

Well Friday the 13th turned out to be a scary day for the fish today! The NE Winds had no negative effect on the bite! I had regular clients Allen P. and Brian aboard as we flew out the inlet. We stopped and jigged some fresh 5 to 7in cigar minnows, spanish sardines, and boston mackerel and then made a quick stop not too far off the beach. As we were letting out our first bait.... BAMMM! we hooked up on a King Mackerel... over a one hour period we had about 10 hookups and lost a couple Kings to a big Barracuda. We moved on hoping to get a Mahi or a Cobia and wound up on a ledge holding a mess of Amberjack. While playing with the AJ's we lucked out and Brian spotted a Cobia on the surface... we fed a 7in. live spanish sardine to him and within 10min.'s Brian successfully landed a 23lb Cobia. We made another stop and found a good mixed bite of Kings and Spanish. We lost several more kings to Barracuda and put a couple of 3lb Spanish in the boat before heading back to the dock. Great Job Guys! Awsome Day on the water. I talked with Capt. Mike Taylor several times throughout the day and he wound up fishing the backwaters for 6hrs. He and his client landed and released a mess of redfish.
