On July 10, 2010 Westin Browder reeled in a record catch at The Nags Head Fishing Pier in Nags Head, North Carolina. Using a 14 inch bluefish as bait, Browder caught the largest cobia ever recorded on a pier that has been in existence since the 1940’s. Browder’s cobia was 62 inches long, had a girth of 31 inches and a 12 inch head. The fish weighed in at 90.2 pounds.

  Browder, who lives in Manakin-Sabot will be a freshman at Goochland High School this fall.
