I Hooked Something BIG in Shallow Water – You Won’t Believe What Showed Up!
We were sight fishing in just a few feet of water when a shadow appeared... and then BOOM — the fight was on! In this episode, we hook into cobia right in the shallows, proving you don’t always have to go deep for big action. Watch as this brute takes off, tests the gear, and gives us one heck of a battle.
🎣 Gear Used:
– Okuma X reel 4000 with an SRT rod
– 1/4 Berkley Jig head and Gulp
– 20lb floro
📍 Location: Tampa Bay, FL – Shallow water flats
