Absolute MONSTER Cobia Update with Video

Nice cobia airbus! That pic looks a lot like what we saw at the 60 on wednesday. Big old roughtail with his cobia escort. Whats with the white patches on the cobia sides. I can’t say i’'ve ever noticed them before?

wasnt a permit… Never seen this fish and cant find a picture anywhere. Still looking

anyways here is a photo of a tiger notice the detail around the tail. It is the first thing i noticed where it was hanging out between a crack in the livebottom. I estimate it was 24-26 inches

try this website. Your fish will be on there.

Sounds like a Tilefish to me. They are usually found pretty deep(depending on the species) I believe.

Ok, last try. Silvery fish with round bull mahi head and snapper like tail around 10lbs…has to be a jack crevalle.
And…?

This was fun, but I would have much rather been diving. Too bad I don’t own a Coast Guard Cutter.

Tiger may also have been a black groupa fish, reckon they could be confused pretty easily. As far as the other fish you must have been narced out.

Got the video done

cool video guys! great fishing, the diving is second only to sex, and the climax with the dive is a lot longer!might need to use your standby diver Paul.

If it got any better I couldn’t stand it.

In the long run diving is MUCH cheaper too!:smiley:


Set the trap boys, we going to pass through them again!!

Extremely nice catch! Way to go!

The moment of peace, right before drowning… The final release when I’m becoming one with the sea.

I figured out the mystery!!!

Let’s lay out the facts here… He saw a 100lb cobia, a tiger grouper, and a silver-mahi-snapper fish, all very rare, and ALL on the SAME DIVE! I’m guessing he was Narc’ed!!!

Exactly yellabird!! I saw that article and thought the same thing

Skinee,
don’t be so quick to judge. I saw an 8 armed alien/sea creature at the bottom of the Georgetown Hole many years ago. I would have chalked up that experience to being narced had the creature not spoken to me. [:0]
