Flounder: The Hottest Cobia Bait of 2014

Buddy of mine over around Pensacola sent me this pic from the cleaning table.
That's 7 flounder, 2 rays, 1 crab. Thing must have been like a vacuum cleaner on the bottom. Nice sized flounder too.

I accidentally posted that on the Rant. Was able to take it down before they destroyed me.

That's a big crab

That's really cool.
I'm sure this time of the year when they run close in their diet is flounder heaviver than normal. I have read studies showing that when they move offshore their diet is comprised of over 2/3rds hardhead catfish which seems a little ridiculous to me. Never thought of using that as bait.

I've always figured kittens would be killer cobia bait.

Damn, I would have never guessed that a lemon would hold so much in the stomach..

How much would it take to get one of y'all to eat one of those flounder?

Probably more meat on that crab

I can't believe that fish can get something like that crab down without crushing it up a bit.

I have a theory that live iguanas would be the ultimate cobia/yft bait
Posted on 4/21/14 at 10:53 am to TheGreat318
How in the world did it hold that much in it's stomache? All that was in one Cobia?

That's what we have used for cobia bait for years. Great use of a hard head. We would catch a bunch with dead shrimp before we went out. Then you just snip the fins to make them bleed a bit and hook them live. If there was a cobia in the area, you didn't have to wait long for a hook up.

Every time we plan to make a trip, we throw the cast net off the dock and load up with small hardheads. Snip the spines and stick em in the live well. If cobia aren't biting on anything, they'll usually still hit the catfish.

Yes they are. Just cut the spines off before putting in the live well.
