Cobia

(family: rachycentridae)

Cobia, or Black Kingfish, are an amazing fish. Often cobia are seen swimming with Manta Rays, and lures or slices cast and retrieved close to these rays will normally get results.

The hard fighting characteristics of Cobia, make it a great sportfish, with larger specimens a real test for skill and gear.

I love ’em!

Bag Limits in Qld apply, a min size of 75cm and max 10 fish per person.
