4/19/11 FIRST COBIA OF THE YEAR!!

They are here!!!! This morning was the dream morning with perfect conditions for sight fishing. I made my

first trip to the Broad River to look for some cobia swimming on the surface and in the first five minutes

of looking Dave Roman pictured above caught my first cobia of the year. This fish was the earliest I have 

every landed a cobia in the season by a few days. What was better than catching one fish was for Dave's

Wife Kathy (pictured below) to catch one as well. We had to look for a few more hours to find her fish 

but we spotted a nice one and hooked up and it ended up being a keeper. Perfect way to to end the trip!

I love this time of the year! The weather doesn't get any better and the fishing is getting ready to

really bust loose with new species arriving every day. Speaking of... earlier today on my morning

trip we hooked  my first cobia of the year but unfortunately the fish got away! This would have

been the earliest I have ever caught a cobia in the season. I heard of several others caught today 

so I am sure I will get one soon. Pictured above is a great shot from my mid day trip with a really

nice redfish we also saw hundreds of sting rays cruising the flats and even caught a few on the fly!

Caught some nice fish today! The first few pics are with The West family  who caught my first

nice reef shark of the year..one of many to come! The afternoon trip was great as well and we 

caught some big redfish at low tide and finished with a few nice little sharks. Still waiting for  

the cobia run to start should be any day now.  Can't wait!

The wind really picked up today and so did the fishing for the  BLUE FISH! My clients had a blast catching 

a bunch of blue fish on light spinning gear and also on the fly. We also finished with a few nice redfish. 

Now that the blues are here and soon to follow will be cobia, sharks, spanish & king mackeral.
