Kooks Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 I found this clip of people fishing in Abu Dhabi. It looks like a Cobia but looks really fat. What do ya reckon??
bombora Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Yep, but you are right it's a particularly thick and wide one. Gotta admit it's so wide I had a flash of world's biggest remora! Nice catch casting a lure from a pier.
joel.pringle Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 It's not entirely clear, but looks like they chucked it over the fence (including spray from the landing). Not how I'd treat flesh I was going to eat! Hrgh
aeb870 Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 It does look different than our Cobia in Australia but according to this website it is a Cobia. Cobia in the Arab Gulf I noticed that when I go to another country, their fish looks slightly different. For Example the Snapper found in the Mediterranean looks slightly different again than ours.
kitster Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 I found this clip of people fishing in Abu Dhabi. It looks like a Cobia but looks really fat. What do ya reckon?? Actually from Kuwait. Entirely different country but also in the gulf. We catch cobia here a friend landed a 45kg fish on his yak not too long ago. This place is lucky to have quite a good number of the, but commercial fishing and almost zero comservation have fish stocks dwindling fast.
Towlersbay boy Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 Yeah Cobia Just got back from fishing Coral Bay WA & the place is thick with them. The fish are units to like 30KG plus !
