Best Day Ever!

Post by woopty »

Best day ever since I got my boat five years ago.

Launched from Mashes Sand in some really skinny water and headed to our spot.

Limited out in two hours.
Cobia where everywhere. Boated 7. kept 3.
Gags were hungry too. Boated 8. kept 6. No shorts.
Cigar minnows were today's ticket to ride.

Wow, what a paradise!...

WOOPTY!!! SHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! :smt009

Ok, that out of my system and since the cat's out of the bag, :smt038 :thumbup: :beer:.

DARN SOLID report! And had a feeling that a good cobe report was about to hit. Just could feel it with the weather, with one of our first heat storms popping up the other day. Sadly I was stuck in the yard, but felt hot, saw dark coastal clouds building up, and the winds getting flat like they will before a summer storm, and thought, "Someone's about to put up a cobia report!". Glad you got em, guess it's time to dust off the rods and reels and get out there myself! ;-)

Hey Woopty,
The cobia are here! :lol:

Great report and outstanding trip. Planned to take the cobe rod along on my charters this week and you just confirmed it. Looks like we're going from an early spring season right into summer.

If we had one more aboard, it would have toppled that fence.

plan was to do some trolling, but we tried bottom fishing first and never moved.
cigars were doing a splendid job
