Very nice. Are they usually on rays or free swimming when you sightcast to them from the pier? :toast:

Manta's in Nov. Bottom Rays Dec, Jan., Feb., and into March. March, April, and in May they are back on Mantas and on Leather Back turtles. Almost never just free swimming like they do in the Panhandle.

Both pier and boat. Boat fish were from running the beach in the boat.

Bunch of nice Cobes for sure. My son and I will be heading down from Virginia this winter an tossing jigs at Cobia will be one thing we are looking to do some. I tie jigs and was wondering if a certain head style, weight and color works better than others down your way.
