Flounder revisited

Flounder are in.

ok, I wrote Flounder.

What are they? a fish whose development is interesting in that newly hatched flounder look like normal fish: eyes on both sides of the body.

During development they migrate to the "left" side of the body (left of the dorsal)


Wait! You might think these are "Fluke" if you're from that over-populated section of the country called "Northeast"... specifically northeast of the imaginary line running from Tuckerton to Trenton NJ, or roughly corresponding to New Jersey's "I-95 Corridor" !

But down south, we just call them "Flounder".

Now, as far as being "IN", if you search back a bit, you'll see my pattern for Skok's Pheasant Phlounder fly.
This fly imitates baby FLOUNDER... which have just started making an appearance in our local estuaries.

Therefore, the time to fish these babies (the flies) is RIGHT NOW!
