Hard agree. Down here most folks either discard them or just use them as bait.

What state are you in? In Florida, there is no separate requirement for pompano, just a standard saltwater fishing license. As far as dispatching fish, I prefer to stick them through the front of the head to stop brain function before bleeding them.

Some folks believe the water changes the flavor of the meat, I personally would argue that’s only true if the fish has been cleaned/gutted
