I love how you guys are using light set up for this fish instead of overcompensating with overly heavy rod and reels! Now this is fishing with precision and technique!
Thank you we appreciate the kind words!!! Always fun when they put up a fight, got to give them a chance!
Chumming is fun when there's a lot of action but it gets old quick especially when its over 90°F and the bite is slow or the rays move in and wear you out and tear up a bunch of tackle. Im further up the Chesapeake and we've found trolling with monster surgical hoses behind planers or inline weights to be just as effective as chumming or sight fishing. Seems like those cobia have a hard time turning down a red or orange 20-24 inch surgical hose especially if you got it swimming right. The nice thing about trolling is the weather doesn't seem to matter a whole lot and you can cover so much more water and the only bycatch is the occasional bluefish or spanish if you also have some spoons in your spread. We don't have quite the numbers of cobia that you do down there way up here where I'm at but I've had days where I've caught over 10 cobia in few hour trip all on the troll.
Hey @johnnorris1227! I'm a Boston guy who typically targets Striped Bass (rockfish as y'all call em down there) and am very successful with the Tube & Worm (surgical tube). I typically use a 24" red tube with a sea worm trailing the end. Do you put anything on the ends of your tube hooks while trolling? Also, do you run a weight upstream of the tube to keep it lower in the water column? I don't add weights to mine up here and it often stay at or just below the surface. I'll be visiting Virginia/Chesapeake Bay at the end of August and hope to catch some Cobia! Thanks for the info, tight lines!
Excellent catch!
Pretty work, H-town has 🔥 food
Awesome video. What time of year were you fishing? I was fortunate enough to land a 52lber from the surf last July
love the videos. new sub
Is that Caleb B. on the boat? That dude is famous.
Keep an eye out for Caleb in a new video coming out soon!
I am going to Norfolk soon and will be going Cobia fishing. Where do you get the eels for live bait? Do you have to catch them, or can you buy them? Great Video!
We sell them live!! Stop in to our Virginia Beach location off Northampton Blvd. & pick up some eels, buck tails, and any of you other needs! We would be happy to get you rigged up!

Great to see y’all taking the time to let that fish recoup after that long battle. Conservation at its finest.
How do you keep the eels from wrapping themselves around the leader?
Sometimes it’s unavoidable... we were hooking them through the tail on this day because we find they swim a little better when bottom fishing with em. One thing that does help is when your sight casting for them and have them staged in a bucket or live well keeping slack in your line so that the eels are relaxed will help. If your line is tight it will tense the eels up and they will wrap themselves in it.
