after a little give and take, I decided ta just turn off the motor and prepare for a fight 
got the Cobia to the boat at least a dozon times but couldn't get a shot at it with the gaff and he finally pulled free 
set the red head out again and on the third pass it sings the song again 
this fight was also a drawn out one due to my forearm feeling like it was on fire one minute and a wet rag the next 
finally stuck him with the gaff and strait into the live-well, a 34 incher "sure wouldda hated ta have ta throw him back" decided my arm couldn't handle another Cobia any time soon, so went off towards bouy 26, started trolling about 3 miles from it and hooked up with and landed a 34 inch King trolled out as far as 55 foot and back with no takers, ran to the rotary and trolled for about 2 hours on it with nothing and headed in. Decided ta give the Reds and Trout a shot at the big Oyster bar at the mouth and caught a 23 inch Trout while Red fishin and a 24 inch Red while Trout fishin 
The 4 fish give me 8 FULL quart bags of boneless fish 
PS: the camera's broke, so no pics this time
Sounds like you had a blast with them though. Good report. 
am still sore from head ta toe
