Florida Pompano
Pensacola offers some fantastic Florida Pompano fishing, largely due to its diverse coastline. You'll find these tasty fish cruising the surf along the Gulf beaches of Perdido Key, Pensacola Beach, and Navarre Beach. Pompano season here is generally best in the spring and fall, as they migrate along the coast. Look for them around the first and last high tide of the day. A key to success in Pensacola is finding the troughs and cuts in the sandbars where Pompano forage for sand fleas and other invertebrates. Local anglers often use sand flea rakes to gather bait right on the beach. For access, try parking near the public beach access points along Gulf Boulevard; many have convenient parking and are close to productive fishing areas. Be aware that the surf can get rough, so check the marine forecast before heading out.
