Double Doormats!

I took a break from packaging and shipping lures yesterday and waded the incoming tide at Pelican Island.

I worked in a faster retrieve than I normally do for flounder and it paid off more than my traditional method did on this wade.

I still kept the lure close to or on the bottom, but I worked it a lot faster. I worked my rod tip to the side rather than up, which I almost always do while flounder fishing. I would twitch it hard and down to get the lure to kick up dust on the bottom. This produced rod bending strikes!

I used Red/White Controlled Descent Lures and filled the hollow cavity with Pro-Cure Flounder Pounder Super Gel on a 3/8 oz. screw lock jig head.

Total for the day was 9 flounder, obviously I only kept these two.

Nice slabs!

I really need to work on this! Every time I catch a flounder I'm just as suprised as it is. Flounder are my favorite fish but also the fish I have the least skills to catch. Sure wish I could trade my hardhead skills for some flounder skills!

No live or dead bait will reduce the hard heads, but not eliminate. For the rest of the year fish around major passes and stay near the bottom. You will catch flounder! No live or dead bait!

nice fish
