It's easy. When fishing 8' to 10' deep water, when you see the flounder, dangle abait in front of it. The flounder will gobble it up.

That's pretty skimpy info....

Come on now... Were you using floro carbon leader... ?? No leader?? Did you have the bait on the bottom or further up in the water column?? Cajun Thunder with an 8 ft leader?? 1/8 ounce jig head... 1/4... 3/8.... no jig head ??? Live bait?? If artificial...what color did they prefer? Can you explain/expand your "dangle" technique a bit more ? Being willing to share information and mentor others is the mark of a true sportsman.

SR, even though it's simple, there's just too much to explain. It'll require a 2 hour personal consultation.............at my usual hourly rate.

I hate to see you've taken the forum to such a commercial/capitalist level of emphasis in exchange for sharing knowledge

Ok, I'll bite. How did you see the flounder in 10' of water? Was the water that clear or was the flounder that big?

Me either, or at least not nearly as much as I expected for the summer. Come on down to Wildwood Country Club, you can help me mow.
So now, in addition to fishing for free (per trip), by towing a canoe behind a bicycle, I broke out my old sticks and am now playing golf for free, employee discount + balls and tees found while mowing.
