fishn4fun (8/22/2008)never used ribbon fish are they just for trolling or do they make good casting baits
Try casting a fresh ribbon to a cobia or king if you can sight one in the bay. Work it slow, like a live eel. You'll probably get bit. I'll never forget one cobe that refused everything, except a dead ribbon. You can't figure a fish, but with experience, you even the odds.
