I fished off of Back River this morning for Flounder Bowl bait. I fishing a Sabiki with Fish Bites behind a chum pot. I put out a couple of eels to soak while catching bait. I had a good baby spot bite going until the sharks found me. They really like eels. The things would not let go until I would pull them out of the water and the eel would cut through. Not really cobia fishing, I just kept casting what was left of the eel back out there and went back to spot fishing. I had just caught two sharks on this eel and what was left had another one on. It turned out to be a nice cobia. It weighed in at 58 pounds 3 ounces. While cleaning the cobia, our two labs thought playing chase and tackle in the creek was great fun. Now they want in the house. We will be eating this cobia at the Flounder Bowl party.
