Friday 10-19 was cobia day!
My buddy Tim never posts on boards, but he sent me this photo of his huge 60-ish lbs cobia that he also shot this Friday, freediving in shallow water on the SE coast.
Hell of a fish Tim!  Chad

Re: Friday 10-19 was cobia day!
That really helped the photo Grady!
Many spearos suck at photography... notice the sun is behind Tim. Would have been better without the buddy too. At least he got the whole fish framed.

Re: Friday 10-19 was cobia day!
I'll give Tim a little while to chime in. It would be best told by the shooter.
