Pompano bite is smokin’ now!

Trip Summary

The Pompano are staging in their winter haunts and are ready to go! These speedsters move in and out with the tides, and having a local bead on their habits and optimal conditions is crucial for hooking up with them consistently. They can bite on a variety of set-ups, but I always go back to my reliable standbys. I like a chartreuse/pink/white weighted banana jigs tipped with shrimp and bounced in the current! When you feel the the quick bite be ready with a fast hookset and your off to the races! Always, a good idea before planning a Pompano trip, is to match up strong tides with good stable sunny weather! If you want to catch Pompano? I’m your “go to beach guide” with a 30 year history of targeting and catching them here in Sarasota! Tight lines from the beach! Captain Steven Beach Fishing Adventures
