Muskie Fishing -> Lures,Tackle, and Equipment -> Cobb presentation

Just curious how the heck these darn things should be worked? Do I give it hard short pulls, soft long pulls, side to side or straight down? I believe this bait will eventually be a producer for me if I can figure out how to present it. I use hard short pulls but the lure either rides up or only goes to one side. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jesse

hi, seeing as no one is willing to answer, I will. I fish them with short soft pulls to keep them under the surface. I get a good glide when pulling them under first in one long pull and then start with the short soft pulls. Keep your line slightly tighter than with the average glide-bait, but not tight as you would need for a suick. Another great action I get with these cobb's gliders is just pulling them back like a suick with long hard pulls and taps inbetween. Don't mind that it doesn't glide, the wobble often produces more takes for me.

I love fishing Cobbs and like Steve said, the wobble is the key. With countdowns, I get more glide. But with the unweighted ones, I keep the rod tip low and give the rod just a 6" to 1' tap. This gives you a side to side glide that starts off with a little shimmy first. They seem to work better if you don`t over work them. Short and low rod tip with long pauses in between.
