Mogan Mayhem – wild COBIA in Cape Canaveral

It’s “Mogan Mayhem” as Capt. Blair Wiggins connects with childhood friend, Capt. Scott Lum with Outcast Charters, and takes the 2200 Bay Ranger off Florida’s Space Coast in search of plentiful cobia. Call them ling, call them lemon fish, Mogan Man calls them delicious; putting the right bait in front of them is like calling them to dinner. Blair and Scott find a few different fishing methods that work very well. Capt. Blair tried out the new Trokar hooks by LaserSharp by using a live croaker for bait. The DOA Swimming Mullet also proved worthy of putting a bend in the Wright & McGill rods. The cobia action is nonstop off Cape Canaveral in this episode of Addictive Fishing.

Answer by Anum
his is a pretty general question- I’ll try to give you a few helpful hints, though.

1. Oftentimes to be effective, you need to sneak up on the water and cast from your knees- this can be tough on your knees and your waders. Beat this by purchasing some carpenters knee pads at the hardware store. Mine have thick padding and hardshell caps on the knees- protects me and my waders from damage.

2. When tying flies, sometimes you wnt a weighted fly, and sometimes an unweighted fly. I tie my weighted flies with a different color of thread, so the “Head” is a different color on my weighted flies than my unweighted flies, and I can tell the difference just by looking at them.

3. tapered leaders and tippet come off the spools in curls- to straighten them, you need a leader straightener. You can make one by cutting out a patch of bicycle inner tube, punching a hole and tying it to your vest. Pinch the leader in the piece of tube and pull, and it will straighten out the leader.
