A weight-length relationship was determined for a sample of 1,984 Florida pompano collected along the Gulf Coast of Florida between 2000 and 2002. [6] The fish sampled ranged in length from 79 to 481 mm (3.16-19.24 in). For this sample of Florida pompano, b = 2.9342 and c = 0.00076.

One of the coolest, most prehistoric-looking fish lives in Florida’s offshore waters of the Gulf of Mexico. It happens to be one of the best to eat but also one of the most elusive.
Total length measurements are used in slot limit and minimum landing size regulations. Fishery biologists often use a third measure in fishes with forked tails, called Fork length ( FL ), the length of a fish measured from the tip of the snout to the end of the middle caudal fin rays, and is used in fishes in which it is difficult to tell where ...
