Cobia

We are lucky enough to visit Santa Rosa beach once or twice a year. Each trip must include a fishing trip with Captain Kerry Jones, and this 65 lb cobia was caught about 400 yards off the beach out of his boat in late April of 2008. Captain Kerry is a pleasure to fish with, and the fresh fish we get to enjoy the rest of the week is always a treat. This guy knows where the fish are!
