Pompano at Johnson's Bch.(with pics)

I haven't been on the water in a few days, and I had to get out. Woke up this morning and decided to hit Johnsons Beach. I picked up some fresh shrimp and loaded the truck. Arrived at the gate around 10 AM and found a promising spot. First rod out and I get a bite before I even cast the 2nd rod! I missed that fish and reset the lines in hopes of another. Man, was the bite ON! I normally fish three rods at staggered distances, but I never even got the third rod in the water. The bites were coming as fast the bait settled. A few times I was actually fighting one fish when my other rod would get bit. I had to put one rod between my legs and set the hook on the other! All the while my girlfriend is cheering me on and NOT HELPING ME! No bother, the bite was on, and I was having a blast. She did bring in two fish-1 pomp and a blue. The fish kept up like this for a little over an hour then shut down.We stayed just a little while longer then decided to head home. Final tally: 10 bites, 6 pomps, and a bluefish. The pompano were all 12-14.5 inches, but I did bring in a nice one at just over 17. Tight lines.
