Nice Cobia(aka:lemon fish-ling) Invade South Mississippi

[whipper]

Well cobia (ling-lemon fish) would have to take top billing on this report. In 2 offshore trips just 15 to 20 miles behind Horn Island the new 29ft. WHIPASNAPA CHARTERS boat caught over 25 cobia all between 20 to 40lb. What a hoot! Also caught Dorado (aka-dauphin-maui maui), king mackeral,lane snapper, flounder and white trout.
Try to go one other day and decided to turn around lil bit to rough. 1-3 hr light tackle inshore we did boat over 30 nice black drum, 6 or 8 over 10 lb the rest 2 to 6 lb good eating size, an lots of fun. These cobia should be around another few weeks.

So lets go get'um

YEA WE SAW SOME IN CLOSE ONCE THIS YEAR ON A GRASS LINE ABOUT TEN MILES SOUTH OF PETIS BOIS ALSO HOOKED AND LOST A WAHOO. BUT LIKE YOU SAID THAT BLUE WATER WAS IN REAL CLOSE. THE COBIA HAVE BEEN THICKER THAT I HAVE EVER SEEN THEM , THEY ARE EVERY WHERE. WE HAVE BEEN SEEING AS MANY AS 20-25 ON SOME RIGS. WHAT DO YOU THINK THIS STORM IS GOING TO DO TO THE FISHING, I AM ANXIOUS TO GET OUT THERE AFTER IT BLOWS THREW AND SEE WHAT CAME WITH IT.
