Pompano fishing in Florida, United States is all about fast runs, bright flashes, and delicious fillets. Florida’s sandy beaches, warm surf, and shallow bays make a perfect home for Florida Pompano. They move in schools, fight hard for their size, and reward patient anglers with great action.

Most anglers target Pompano by surf fishing or inshore fishing. In the surf, cast small jigs or natural baits like sand fleas, which are small mole crabs found in the wash. A simple pompano rig with two small hooks and bright beads works well. On flats and along sandbars, use light spinning tackle and bounce goofy jigs or shrimp-tipped jigs near the bottom. Drift passes and edges, and keep your lure moving to find active fish.

Charter trips are usually short and close to shore, which is great for families and first-timers. Captains often supply tackle, bait, and safety gear, and they know the tides and beach structure. Wear sun protection, bring polarized sunglasses to spot fish and bars, and pack water and snacks. Expect steady casting, quick bites, and a few breaks to move with the school.

Top areas include the Panhandle beaches from Pensacola to Destin, the Nature Coast and Big Bend flats, Tampa Bay passes, Sarasota and Charlotte Harbor bars, the Space and Treasure Coasts, Palm Beach and Jupiter surf, and the Keys’ channels and bridges. Look for clean water, mild surf, and troughs near shore.

Before you go, check local fishing license, permit, season, and harvest rules. Regulations can change by area and time of year, so review them ahead of your trip.

    (pompano pier fishing lesson)

    Pier fishing

    I'd like to thank Captain Scott for his time and dedication! He was the only Captain ready to accompany a family PIER fishing in Pompano. Very cool, natural and open with kids. The kids are super happy, the parents enjoyed the fishing either. A professional who knows and loves what he's doing. Highly recommend! We will definitely get back to Captain Scott for the future fishings.

    amazing crew!

    Kenny and Joey were awesome! The boat was clean, and they had tons of fishing experience! We caught a massive 35 lb amberjack, which put smiles on everyone’s faces! We also caught lots of bonita, but the mahi weren't cooperating today…. that’s fishing! I've fished with other crews here in Pompano, and this was by far the best experience. We will definitely be back in November! Tight lines!
