Q.Inshore Migration Timing
When do pompano run in Florida?
A.
Pompano run along Florida beaches in two pulses: the spring run (March-May) along the Atlantic coast as fish migrate north, and the fall run (October-December) on the southward return. Peak surf-fishing activity overlaps with the runs in both seasons.
Pompano follow sand fleas and beach-stage bait pods. Surf fishermen use multi-hook rigs with sand flea bait or pompano jigs cast into trough water. Migration calendar pages cover pompano timing along the Florida coast.
