These two young ladies bagged a couple of nice looking pompanos, and are pretty happy about it.

The fishing the last couple weeks after the last cold front the fishing has been excellent. Fishing the passes has produced black drum, sheepshead, snapper, pompano, and permit.

In the back waters fishing docks the snook bite has been very good as well. Our bay is still recovering from the red tide of 2018 so conservation of our resources is still very important.

So leave your computer and emails behind, get away from the television or tablet, and let your eyes rest on the gently sparkling water and go fishing.
