2011 brought one of the longest lasting cold water upwellings in a decade, with water temps in the 70s throughout the "dog days" of this year. While this can make for tough Tarpon fishing, the Cobia bite is a pleasant option! Sightfishing is the name of the game-accurate casting is a must to get the larger fish. Here's a little video of some fantastic beach fishing right out of Matanzas Inlet.
