pompano

Monday morning Jan 24, South Melbourne beach. Last day of a long weekend visit with a cousin from PA. Over the weekend was just too windy so we did not try. This morning he said I’m flying home today, let’s fish. I pointed out the temperature was below 50 and the wind was still a bit stiff. After some deliberation we hit the beach about 8:30am. a few frozen fleas, just 2 rods, and by 11:00 we were out of time. He had 2 decent pompano and 1 small whiting. Had time to prep the pomps for lunch before we head to the airport!
