[MrNuggy420]

@nightr4 he was using a 4000 size reel and 20lb power pro

WOW what perfect weather everytime i head down there the wind front is just blowing directly over the flats and ruins any chance for tailing reds that is truly an amazing day to be out on the water.

Caught one today right out past the breakers of the Fort Pierce inlet. These fish are pretty easy to catch and one of the best tasting fish out there. Love cobia.
