Pompano. Where and how?

[Afishionado]

I hear there's pompano around V Bay offshore. Supposedly there's a guide out of Pecan Island that does pompano charters. I've only caught one surf fishing in Grand Isle, but I hear they eat fantastic.

Where and when do you catch them? I don't want any of your secret spots or rigs, just looking for general info like depths and what thet bite on. Thanks.
