OFF THE HOOK conditions today! These are the days you really
look forward to and hope to see cobia cruising right below the surface.
We ended up only seeing one fish before the wind picked up and he was 
just not interested. We finished up the trip with some great light tackle
action catching some reef sharks.


Fly Fishing For Cobia in Hilton Head

4/28/12 Pic Of The Day!
Today was my first trip to the Broad River and we were looking 
to sight fish for cobia. In my opinion there is no better way to catch
a big cobia especially on a fly rod or spinning rod. Finding cobia in
the broad river can sometimes be like finding a needle in a haystack!
The conditions got perfect mid day and My client Mark Nutting had a
shot at his first cobia on the fly and unfortunately the fish was just not
 in the mood to eat. We spent over 5 minutes throwing different flies to
the fish and just could not entice a strike. We also had several shots to
 some very nice tripletail which were the first few that I have seen this 
year as well. Even though we didn't boat a fish we still had a great day
and Mark can't wait to try again next year when he is back!

What a amazing catch my client had today while fishing for tiny
baitfish with one of light spinning rods he hooked into this nice
cobia pictured above that took a good 20 minutes to get the boat!



Shark Fishing Hilton Head Island

The sharks are here and here to stay until October. There are well 
over 10 species of sharks that migrate into our waters for the summer 
months. This shark pictured above with The Royer family is a spotted 
reef shark and is total blast to catch on light tackle!

Have you seen this fish lately?  The last 3 days have been so windy 
it has been very difficult to fish for Mr. Cobia! Today looks to be another
 super windy day as well and I hope the winds back off  soon so I can get
 back on the hunt for this awesome fish that is only in our area in good
numbers for the next month or so.

Not a bad first fish of the day in the first 5 minutes of the trip!
Unfurtunately it was the only redfish we got but we had some
good shots at several others. We also tried for cobia and it was 
slow but caught some really nice sharks and finished up with
a bunch of blues on the fly and light spinning gear.

What a great trip the past 2 mornings catching nice little blues on 
light spinning tackle. My clients must have caught close to 25-30
fish or more and we also kept a few for the frying pan as well!
I went back out after my morning trip by myself and ended up 
catching dinner for the family.  Nothing like grilled cobia!

Hilton Head Inshore Fishing For Redfish

Not a bad day considering it was blowing 20-25 mph out of the NE!
The good ole' North Easter is one  of the worst wind conditions to fish in
but we managed to pull some really big redfish out despite the winds!
Pictured above and below are my morning and afternoon trips great
catches! The next few days look great and I look forward to chasing 
after some cobia.

This afternoon we caught my first cobia of 2012 and beat my
all-time earliest catch for a cobia by 9 days. Unbelievable!
The fish weighed 34lbs and put up a great 15 minute fight!
I have heard of several other cobia caught at different spots 
and the numbers should continue to increase for the weeks 
to come. Can't wait! The morning trip ended great with a 
big red that faught like he was twice as big!

It was a beautiful day but the fishing was a little challenging 
due to the windy conditions and muddy water. We still caught
some nice ones though. Both trips today were repeat clients
and we had blast despite the fishing conditions!

Excellent inshore action on light tackle and fly. Bluefish and
spanish mackerel are running really good right now and are here
much earlier than I have ever seen due to the warm water temps.
Trout and redfish are in the creeks and there are also some big 
black tip sharks right off the beaches around the sandbars. Fun!

Who ever said size matters especially when you are having fun!
I don't care what anyone says catching these little blues on the fly 
and light spinning tackle is a total blast.

The sharks are and in and so are a few cobia. I have heard of a few 
confirmed catches of cobia the past few days which is unbelievable 
for this early in the season. I expect to catch one hopefully soon!
