Pompano Limit Thursday 2-2-12

Had a short day at work so I jumped on the Forum when I got home. To my surprise I read a couple posts about people still catching pompano! I couldn't take it, so I grabbed two rods and off I went. I got set up and had my first line in about 4:15PM, had first fish on the beach about 4:25. The action was steady, I caught 6 pomps in less than an hour. I will be out again tomorrow before the big game for sure! All fish caught on fresh dead peeled shrimp.

Wow - Congrats on a hard to make limit.

Great catches! Yeah, seeing that others are doing well gives me the green light to put my other projects on hold and do some fishing!!!

I fish on Pensacola Beach. I have a couple different spots that consistently produce fish for me, just depends on the conditions.

dorado74, nice mess of fish, hey i see the hook with what looks like 2 orange beads, could you show me a pic of your setup,(weight, leader, etc) please,???

I actually only use one orange bead, that fish ate both baits so it looks like two beads. I will be glad to take a picture of my rig and if you message me (or anyone else) I will gladly tell you how I make them
