Cobia
Chasing Cobia from Port Allen puts you in a great spot to intercept these nomadic fish as they cruise the nearshore waters of the Gulf. Cobia are often found around structure like buoys, pilings, and floating debris, and they're also known to follow rays. Spring and early summer are prime times, as Cobia migrate along the Louisiana coast. Sight fishing is a popular and effective tactic; keep an eye out for dark shapes near the surface. Live eels, crabs, or large jigs are all effective baits. When targeting Cobia, remember that they are powerful fighters, so use heavy tackle. Public boat launches along the Intracoastal Waterway provide access to the Gulf, but be prepared for potentially long runs. The key is scouting and being ready to move quickly when you spot a fish. Remember to check the current regulations for size and bag limits before you head out.
