Super Hero / Super Zero
Happy Father's Day guys. Took the day off and figured I would update the happenings of late on the Rock Solid. Fishing has been pretty good of late. Cobia have been making there way into the fish box. We have been sighcasting these guys from the tower along the beaches. On the 15th Bob, Chad, Caleb, and Gaven came out fishing for the cobia. We landed six nice fish with 12 year olds Gaven and Caleb getting each 61lb citation cobias as well! Caleb also spotted his own fish from the tower, hooked, and landed it while I was wrestling fish in the cobia coffin. Great day alot of fun, should of seen the one that got away. Probably dragging around 350 yards of samurai braid around some bouy chain up in the Chesapeake bay. Can get em all but fun to try.
The Lamm crew followed up the next day with a pretty catch. Spanish mackeral up to four pounds, plenty of triggerfish, and three nice cobia added to the mix made for a fantastic day. Hope you guys enjoy all those fillets!
Super Hero day with the Heisman crew. Out we go putting along for cobia and things started out slow. We finally saw a pair of cobia and got both of them. They were kinda floating over a school of Drum. Lost sight of the Drum whole fighting the cobia, but that would be fine because as the day went along we landed more cobia and fished on a school of Red Drum sightcasting to them for over an hour. Arms tired we left em to head home late could not fathom action any better on the day.
Super Zero day two with the guys and weather said calm winds and seas but he bait and switched us. Downsea we washed looking for cobia nothing, finally buzzed one off Avon. Wind picked up some more. Well we will fish across the shoals the down to Hatteras Inlet and cruise back home via the Palmico Sound. Off the tip of the shoals, big fat piggy cobia inhales the eel pull drag jumps around then a very evil little bluefish decides he wants to taste eel. This would be the very same eel that slid up the hook after the cobia was hooked up. Well that cobia owes that evil little bluefish one. That is how the day was for us, pulling off jack crevalles and not getting a unmolested magical bait ball. So we took off back home up the sound and got rimracked to whole way back. One of the longest boat travel days for me. Cannot say we don't give it 100%. Hats off to you guys Stu, never met a crew that could possibly be any tougher than you guys. Next trip we are gonna whack em.
Yesterday back to great fishing again. The Smith party (aka 15.5lb flounder catcher guys) came out fishing. Calm seas clear water and cobia present made for a fun day of Oregon Inlet. No big steam today the fish found us. reminded me of fishing the reef in Destin for cobia. It really was a pretty day. We kept out ten fish limit of cobia (two per man) released some and the biggest fish was 63lbs! Pretty work guys! Thanks to everyone for fishing.
