We went for about 4 hours. Very windy, ended up with 5 decent flounder and about 2 dozen large crabs.

Glad you got a few. This wind has sure taken its toll on my freezer supply of flounder fillets so far this year.

I agree...the wind f*&king BLOWS!

You flounder guys are killing me, any chance of linking up to show me what its all about?

Yes, that west wind has been tough lately. Nice catch though!

Sweet:clap! I was going to give it a try last night...but figured it wasn't worth battling the wind.:banghead. 5 flatties is definitely a meal!:hungry:toast

Haven't hit the Floundering in a while now! You're right the wind from the W, don't always make a forgiving trip at night. Over here, If its a SW I try theS side of the bay and bayous, then if it is W, I try the SW edge of the bayous if I can get to them. Problem is, the mouth of the rivers are on the NE side, and that's not a fun ride in the dark! It usually starts to lay down some from how I remember the nights being. Wish it would hurry!

yeah the wind sucked but it gave me a reason to try some areas that I didnt think held fish. Apparently they hold a few.
