Report: Best Flounder Fishing Tips and Tricks, let’s get to it…

In the surf people are reporting catches of puppy drum, flounder, blue fish, croakers and sharks.

On the piers, people are reporting catching croakers, blue fish, flounder, sheepshead and black drum.

Inshore, people are catching speckled trout, red drum, flounder, croakers, blue fish, Virginia Mullet, and sheepshead.

Offshore, there are reports of dolphin, sailfish, king mackerel, Spanish mackerel and still a few white marlin.

As for bottom fishing, people are catching black bass, grunts, flounder, gag and red grouper, and reports of some tile fish.

This week’s fishing tip: Next time you go flounder fishing, set up one of your rods with a bigger hook than you would normally use. Put a 6 to 8 inch long minnow on and if a large flounder is around it will eat a large minnow before it will eat a small minnow. A flounder beds down. It relies on hiding. A large flounder most of the time is looking for a large bait because it takes a large flounder some time to bury up and it will not get out of its bed for a small bait. Try this and you should have better luck catching large flounder.

Keep fishing and be safe.
