This type fly sinks and can be cast at high speeds. The hook will be likely to be cut off when a cobia swoops over and strikes the fly. Next, practice sight-fishing cobia.
First, you should dump the entire fly line into your backing. You can let the line sink and then you can quickly remove it again. A sinking line will help you catch more cobia.
