By Robert L. Brodie
Hey, are you looking for something different, out of the ordinary? Well book a charter with TEAM BRODIE CHARTERS and head out to Mississippi's barrier islands in search of the Florida pompano. {%image_id=5421%} No, you don't here a lot about fishing for this exotic species, but they are there right now for the taking. Generally it's not a numbers game, but when the bite is on a number of fish can be caught. {%image_id=5423%} These silvery speedsters are hard fighters, will jump, sometimes into the boat, and make blazing runs on light tackle. Best of all you're fishing in the gin-clear waters of our barrier isles, and you'll see all sort of other interisting fish in the process. {%image_id=5422%} Today we boated 6 beautiful pompano, 1 big flounder, and 6 legal mangrove snapper, as well as all the ladyfish and bluefish one cares to battle. So, for a try at something different give the Florida pompano a shot. Bottom line, they are a blast to catch on light tackle, and provide world-class eating when baked up nicely, say basted in butter and lemon juice. Yum...yum! Remember...life is short...let's fish!
