Good One Nancy !yes

The video is from Hobe Sound beach on Jupiter Island. That IS my beach!!

I love to pompano fish. They are by far one of the best eating fish. It is white, oily, sweet fish. NEVER filet a pompano. ALWAYS cook them whole. There is a oil sack in the top of the fishes head and when you cook it it explodes and the top 1/3 of the fish gets a butter flavor. Just like stealing a bite when Mom wasn't looking.

6 per person 12 inch minimum from fork to nose, only one over 20 inches.

The bite has been on since Halloween and will peak out in March-April.

Lets go fishin!!!!

I bounce between salmon, swordfish & petrale sole. Had salmon tonight- cooked perfectly in the oven.

There's a great fish market in this little hamlet - everything is fresh from the coast. I visit them once a week.
