A mess o' pomps - Sat PM Pensacola Beach

hopdaddie · 12-02-2007, 12:20 AM

Just past Portofino late on Saturday afternoon - caught 5, kept 4. All about 17 inches or so. Good fun and good fishing. Tasted great for dinner too.

All caught on hand tied fluorocarbon leaders with #1 circle hooks and fresh dead shrimp. I had to get the cast out past the sand bar so it was a good thing it was a little warm out there today because I got wet.

By the way, Maria's sells bait shrimp (fresh dead) for $2.99/lb. Saw another post people looking for fresh deads. I get all mine at Maria's. Don't go and buy it all, I still needs mine!

Good luck

Dan

It was a weird print on that one fish, it did look like a foot print. I was in the water and not wearing shoes so it was not mine!

Went out this afternoon to the same spot, got one, only about 15 inches. Much slower than yesterday but I didn't get skunked.

I'll be back next weekend. I hope the weather is as nice.
