Cobia fishing in Tampa Bay & St Petersburg

St Petersburg Cobia

Table of Contents

Cobia are some of my favorite fish to target in Tampa Bay and St Petersburg on light tackle. Expect these fish to be showing up around wrecks, reefs and grass flats over the next few months. Yesterday we were rewarded with a few nice Cobia all caught on 10-pound class tackle while sight fishing the shallows of Tampa Bay and St Petersburg. #YACHTFISH #saintpetersburg #dtsp #fishingcharters #stpetefishingcharters #yourstpetefishingguide #guaranteedfish #cobia #snook #tarpon #redfish #trout #springbreak #BOOKNOW
