At Seawolf Park, which tide is considered the best to go after Flounder? Low Tide or High Tide?

This time of year I don't think it matter that much. Just moving water.

I think outgoing tide is... flounders are lazy swimmers and use the tides to migrate. They stack up and wait for the tide to move them out and vice versa.

Fish the last two hours on the outgoing tide, the turn, and the first hour on the incoming. Try to find a narrow, shallow spot where bait have to pass on the outgoing and return on the incoming, such as a creek mouth. Especially if the mouth has a drop-off, the flatties will stack up there to ambush live bait. Good luck.

Agree with both above. For me it outgoing, a little steeper area with grass. They love to sit on the edge and gulp down whatever falls out. Just my .02.

Good Luck and Tight Lines.

Thats the way I have been getting them this year here off of the bank. Grass edges, drop offs are better, when the water starts moving, both tides.

Around the Sebastian Inlet in FL we used to pound the shore line with a Chartreuse jigs, rootbeer with red flake grub, tipped with shrimp, at dead high or low tide, and would nail em, after that they would start moving and were tough to catch then.

I haven't tried that in Texas since I'm shore bound, so don't know if it will work here or not.
