Florida Pompano
Panama City Beach is a prime location to target Florida Pompano. The long, sandy beaches provide ample habitat for these prized fish. The best time to fish for Pompano here is during the spring and fall migrations, specifically March-May and September-November. Look for days with relatively calm surf and clear water. A productive strategy is to fish near the numerous public piers, such as the M.B. Miller County Pier, as these structures often attract baitfish and, consequently, Pompano. Anglers often use sand fleas, shrimp, or Fishbites as bait. A local tip: focus your efforts around the sloughs and troughs that form along the beach at low tide, as Pompano will often congregate in these areas to feed. Remember to obtain a valid Florida fishing license before heading out.
