I just love fishing. I am so envious of your dh. I haven't been in some time. Guess i'll have to go out and buy new gear. My son borrowed it and I never got it back. Now that i am retired I could be fishing too. hahahaha.

cat-on-a-mac 04-23-2011 06:27 PM

So great! We vacation in FL a lot, and love to fish. Never got a cobia ... are they good to eat? Redfish are the best, IMHO.

Airwick156 04-23-2011 09:27 PM

Thats enough fish that Ditter can make us all a nice fish dinner....don't you all think.
Your hubby did good there Ditter. But what is a Cobia? Never heard of those. Where at is that at? My hubby is from ft. Meyers too. He still has family there.

woody 04-24-2011 12:22 AM

Great fish!!! My whole family loves fishing too, my DH would love to catch a beauty like that.

terrt 04-24-2011 03:02 AM

WOW!! CAN YOU EAT THAT THING??

Roxanne 04-24-2011 04:10 AM

I lived in Florida for almost 20 years....That cobia is the reason I miss Florida terribly. Here in SC I have to drive 2 hours to get to the ocean to fish! Lake fishing just isn't the same.

Ha ha ha.. same here..and my bass on my wall..looks like bait now. Excellent catch..

drw1mjw2 04-24-2011 07:17 AM

I've only been fishing once, what an experience. No one told be anything about it. My 'bobber' was gone for a while before I figured out I caught something. Tell your hubby Congrat!

booklady 04-24-2011 07:19 AM

can I go with him next time! I have always wanted to go deep sea fishing!

FQ Stash Queen 04-24-2011 07:24 AM

I grew up in Clearwater, FL and Galveston County, TX, and I don't know what a Cobia is. Looks like yummy fish steak, however. Could you enlighten me? Does it taste similar to a dauphin or tuna?
