I got another cobia...this time it was off of Pensacola Beach fishing pier......30.4lbs.......At Pensacola there is a "First Shot" rule'.....:the first person that spots the cobia and calls first shot on it gets to throw at it first and be able to work the fish until either he hooks it, the fish turns off of the jig/bait,or if the guy makes a bad cast on the fish......anyway my friend Kenny called first shot on a fish and it came within 30yds. of the pier ,he threw.... the fish saw his jig and dove at it ,spun around and swam away from it .....I flipped down to him and he darted at mine and appeared to have hit my jig....I jacked him up about 7 times in about 2 seconds and he took off and ran around 75 yds out.....bull dogged for about five minutes or so ....I got him up to the pier and Kenny did a fine gaffing job on him....when I was getting my lure out I noticed I had hooked him in his throat on the OUTSIDE.....he apparently missed my jig when he tried to eat it...wow.... what good luck for me I'm on a roll,lol.................
