What can I expect if I catch one?
Hooking a Cobia is an exciting challenge—they are strong, stubborn, and unpredictable fighters. Known as one of the best game fish in the Gulf of America, Cobia can test your strength with their powerful runs, headshakes, and last-minute dives.
Can you eat them?
Cobia is one of the best-tasting fish in the Gulf. Mild, white, flaky meat similar to grouper or snapper. Great for grilling, blackening, baking, or sushi. High in protein, low in fat, and very clean tasting.
How far out do we need to go to catch them?
Cobia can be caught nearshore and offshore, so you don’t always need to go far! They are often found just off the beaches, in the Destin Pass, and around offshore wrecks.
