jworth;4992387; said:You are probably right, however, this fish was at least 36" long and was definitely 5# or up. I couldnt even come close to wrapping my hand around it. I kicked myself for not weighing them but did not have my scale with me as I tried this spot last minute on a whim and only had the pole. So I am in no position to argue weight but I do know for a fact that this thing was over 5. This fish was heavy. The angles in the pic stink but keep in mind that my fingers are close to an inch wide. My other thread has better angles to judge size.
Regardless, I am sure you will vouch, these things put up an epic fight.
5# +/- is reasonable...and you're right, pics often times give a bad perspective...but cobras are great fighters even out of the water hahaha...
the funny thing about them is they are shy...runs when they see you coming versus pbass...they just look at you ... plus cobras, from my experience, stress out very easily...
great catches...hopefully next time i can join ya
