The cobia are starting to move into the bay pretty thick! And they are eating white bait and pretty much any other baits if they are hungry enough! Trout bite continues to stay consistent with many gator trout and keeper's being put into boat! And they are eating shrimp, pinfish and white bait in the flats!
