Seasonal Activity Chart
Cobia
Targeting Cobia around Grand Isle is an exciting prospect, especially during their migration periods. These fish are most prevalent in the spring and fall as they follow schools of baitfish. Look for them near structures like buoys, channel markers, and offshore platforms. Cobia are known for their curiosity, so chumming with cut bait can draw them in. Sight fishing is also a popular tactic; cruise slowly along the surface, looking for cobia swimming near the surface or around floating debris. Live eels, crabs, or large jigs are effective baits. Be prepared for a strong fight, as cobia are powerful swimmers. A long-handled net is essential for landing these fish. Public boat ramps provide easy access, but be mindful of the wind and wave conditions, especially when venturing offshore. The cobia in this area can reach impressive sizes, so use heavy tackle and enjoy the challenge.
