Fly fishing is a great way to learn new techniques and tips. You can get these videos for free or for a small subscription fee, and you can even subscribe to the Double Badger Media fly fishing video channel to get updates and fascinating stories behind the footage. Here's a brief introduction to the fly fishing video channel:
Fly fishing for cobia
While a fly rod and line are the most common tackle used when fishing for cobia, the fishing lure is also an important consideration. A baitfish-patterned fly is the best choice. This fly sinks so it is best to cast it at high speed. The hook is likely to be cut off if a cobia swoops towards the fly. The next step is to practice sight-fishing for cobia.
The first step is to dump the whole fly line into your backing. You can let the line sink and then you can quickly remove it again. Sinking lines are a great way to catch more cobia. It's also possible to use weighted flying flies. A sinking line and a weighted fly are also options if sight casting is difficult. A ready-to-use fly rod is essential for cobia that are hungry.
Fly fishing for tarpon
Fly fishing is the best option if you want to catch big tarpon. Tarpon is not your standard saltwater species. You need to know the basics of fly fishing. Your success rate will depend on the size of your hook and the material you use. Lefty Kreh’s deceiver pattern is one of the best for tarpon. The streamer is tied onto a 2/0 Hook, which will drive home the fly.
It is important to know how to fish for tarpon. Tarpon are active in the early morning hours so it is best to fish right after the sun rises. This will give you the best opportunity to get a strike. Fishing at night for tarpon is also possible, as the sun sets. But you must keep in mind that tarpon are predatory, so it is advisable to avoid artificial light during the day.

FAQ
Are you able to fish without a bobber?
Yes! A bobber helps keep the bait in place when you fish. The bobber consists of two parts: the line and the float. Attach the hook to the line at the end and then let go. The lure could sink to the bottom if you don't have a bobber. This makes it harder for fish to take the bait.
What kind of fishing gear do I need?
You will need a rod, reel and line. Hooks, bait, tackle boxes, and snacks are also needed. You will need to know how to cast, hook up a hook and use a trolling motor to catch fish. The most important thing is patience and waiting for the right moment to strike.
Is it safe for me to eat fish that has been caught by another person?
Always ask your seller where you bought your fish. It's safe to eat if the fish doesn't have an expiration date. However, if the fish is old or smells bad you should not eat them.

- About 40 percent of all fish are freshwater species. (takemefishing.org)
- Coarse fishing is 100% catch and release these days. (linesonthewater.anglingtrust.net)
