Hilton Head Island Fishing  - Off The Hook Fishing Charters
5/9/11 Pic Of The Day! 
Good things happen if you put your time in! That is exactly what happened this morning with Allen
and his wife Lyne. We stayed busy the entire morning catching sharks and rays but were hoping for
a cobia to show up and with only a few minutes left in the trip we hooked up to this cobia pictured
and another cobia that was even bigger that unfortunately got off. The larger fish was a big female 
and this one pictured was the male. It's not uncommon to hook a male and female at the same time
because it's spawning season and the big females are full of eggs and are on there way into the inland
waterways to drop those eggs and are usually accompanied by several male fish. I would have liked to 
catch the big female but in a way I am glad she got off and will have a chance reproduce and make 
many more little cobia!
