Trip Summary
Summer fishing in South florida has been a great one, catching king fish, snapper, Mahi and bointa regularly. Last week we had a client that wanted to target Bigger Sharks on his Tour, so thats what we did. While targeting sharks, we hooked into a 9’ Tiger Shark, when the shark was coming up to the surface we noticed a few other fish Swimming with the Shark- COBIA. This is not a normal thing for this area, but with theses Cobia, there was one that was much larger than the others. This the fish that we went after. Not expecting this fish; we scrambled boatside for a bit before we could get a bait to him. after a few minutes of chaos we finally got a bait to him, and he ate it instantly. Now we have a tiger shark on the line and a large cobia, what an adventure. We eventually ended up landing both, the tiger and the cobia! Goes to show, you never know whats going to happen out there in the ocean!
I hope you like my report- Captain Mike
