Cobia are powerful and curious predators that demand durable, lifelike lures — and DeLong Lures delivers exactly that. Every DeLong bait is hand-poured in America, built to handle heavy saltwater fish, and infused with anise scent for added attraction.

The best DeLong lures for cobia include:

• Flying Witch (11″) – A large soft-plastic bait with a gliding, fluttering motion that mimics squid and baitfish cobia love to chase near buoys or structure.

• Bucktails – Hand-tied hair spinners with heavy wire frames and hammered blades that provide flash and vibration to draw fish from a distance.

• 8″ KILR Eel – A natural, eel-like soft plastic that swims perfectly in strong currents or vertical jigging situations.

These lures excel around wrecks, buoys, and nearshore structure, where cobia feed on baitfish and squid. The combination of flash, scent, and movement in DeLong Lures keeps cobia engaged longer — giving anglers more opportunities for solid hooksets.

DeLong’s commitment to quality and tradition ensures each lure can handle the toughest saltwater conditions, helping you land more cobia with confidence.
