Using a sinking line can help you catch more cobia than you might otherwise. It is also possible use weighted Flies. Sight casting can be difficult so you may also consider using a sinking line with a weighted flee. Keep a fly rod on hand for hungry cobia.

How To
How to cast a fishing rod perfectly
Casting a fishing pole requires that you use your wrist to guide the rod's handle toward the water. The rod should be held at a slight angle from the body so that the line is parallel to the ground. The rod should be moved forward with the tip perpendicular towards the water surface. If the tip hits the water's surface before the line reaches the bottom, the fish won't bite. This technique will increase the distance between the rod's tip and the water surface.
Here are some tips for casting a rod if you're not confident yet.
First, hold the rod as close to your chest as possible. By doing this, the rod will move in the right direction and you won't have to bend.
A tripod can be placed on the shoreline, or on a rock ledge, to cast a heavy rod. This will allow you to secure the rod while still holding the reel.
You might also consider purchasing a small reel rather than an expensive one. A cheaper spinning reel will let you cast farther distances and help you improve your hand-eye coordination.
Fourth, you may also want to consider purchasing a fishing pole holder. These holders are designed to keep the rod upright and hold it securely. These holders can be stored away easily after each use, and they protect the rod from being damaged.
Fifth, practice casting until your muscles get used to it. Casting a fish rod is a skill that takes time.
Sixth, patience is the key to successful fishing. Waiting for the right moment to strike is key to successful fishing. Then, work hard to get the fish in.
