For fishermen from Panama City to Destin,
early spring fishing means one thing -
Cobia Fishing!

The spring Cobia run brings the highly
 prized species right down the beaches of
 the Florida Panhandle on their westerly
migration. Grayton Beach is usually right
 in the middle of the action. Cobia are
 caught by sight fishing the species from
the boat’s tower and casting jigs or live
 baits (eels are preferred) to the fish.
 Watching a big Cobia turn into the bait is
 just short of heart-stopping.

Ask Captain Larry “What is your favorite
 kind of fishing?” and he will quickly
reply “Cobia.”
