SAVE THE DATE! PANHANDLE SALT POMPANO SHOWDOWN 2027! Panhandle Salt Tournaments, Events, and Gatherings.
Weโve been looking at the calendar, moon phases, spring pompano migration, and potential conflicts, and weโve picked our weekend.
APRIL 16โ18, 2027
The Florida/Alabama Gulf Coast
Three Days of Pompano Fishing
This weekend puts us right in the heart of our spring pompano season and just a few days ahead of the April 20 full moon. We should have good tidal movement building throughout the weekend as those spring pompano make their way along the Florida Panhandle.
There are also no major holiday conflicts, and Friday, April 16 is currently scheduled as a student holiday for Escambia County Schools making this a great three-day weekend for families and our youth anglers.
Weโll have MUCH more information coming on registration, payouts, kids division, sponsors, weigh-in location, rules, and everything else, but fort now mark the date, and get ready for our Fall 2026 tournaments kicking off October 30th with the Upper Limit Oct 30th-Nov 29th, and The Panhandle Salt Pompano Showdown November 20,21,22. Find all information regarding both events by visiting panhandlesalt.com, or click the link at the top of this post. Registration for both events opens October 15th 2026.
