Don't need pictures sounds like an African pompano nice trip . What was the cost of the charter you took and how long as I might set one up.

They are not as uncommon as you think just most people don't know where or how to target them. For those with the knowledge they are a realible catch during certain times of the year. Good eating from what I hear I caught a few short ones and couldn't bring myself to kill the cute little things even when there was no size on them. Big one goes in the cooler though.

linesider, what were you trolling and did you have them at different depths?...

also how long was the leader on the bottom rods?...3-4 feet?
