Cobia are really good eating. Cool fish.
Looks like a great trip with lots of variety.

Everyone's caught a cobia this year except me, dammit! That was an awesome trip for y'all. What happened to the sharks tail fins? Y'all sell them for sharkfin soup?
Haha yea I polished that thing for hours.

Yes, did a trip in Daytona and my boat (not me personally) caught a nice cobia, couple sharpnose sharks around the same size. We had the shark and the cobia filetted up and marinated the shark in milk for a few hours, then seasoned both with some spice blend.
Grilled up easily and was quite tasty. Cobia was a better taste, almost no taste other than seasoning. Shark was more chicken consistency, much meatier, and had a slight taste but wasn't bad at all. Everyone that ate them both enjoyed them both.
Unfortunately all I hooked into were some good size red snappers, but they were illegal to take so we had to throw them back. Was still a fun trip.

Grilled shark with fresh lemon are some great eating. Smoke the King fish or make a King dip. Love the flounder and Reds Lots of variety and some good times. GL and thanks

Honestly, feed the mackerel to your cat or your trees.

Honestly, feed the mackerel to your cat or your trees. I've heard a lot of people say that, until they try it smoked. It's good stuff. It's also good blackened.

Blackened is about the only way I'll eat a gray-meat-mackerel.
Give me grilled redfish on the half shell all day every day for the best table fare.

Looks like a great time was had by all. Hunter got his braces off. Young man has a million dollar smile.
Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it.
Don't text and drive.

Awesome catch my friend! Great pics. Congrats to you and Hunter. My youngest moved down to Houston and we were talking about checking out Surfside Beach. Looks like we'll have to make that trip.

Great pics! Who was your guide? Where is a good place to stay in Surfside?
