No, I am talking about flounder, which are called Winter Flounder.

Fluke are a species that are generally much larger, more aggressive and do just the opposite of their cousins. They come into shallower water from deep offshore during the warmer months.

Hey Giorgio, are you still in the water? Where do you keep your boat? All of the die hard fishermen I know are out for the season already so I haven't gotten any reports. I myself am out also. Just want to add this: follow the party boats. They always seem to know the best spots.

we used to anchor over a mussle bed and catch 'em up one after another. we would cull them out and bring home a dozen each. this was at least 20-30 years ago.
these days you cant even catch your limit.

If your talking about the CBBT area of the Chesapeake Bay then you really need to wait until May when the water is warmer. In Va. the size limit is 19 1/2 inches so it tougher to catch keeper flounder but they get much larger. I only made it to the CBBT 2 times this year and both times we did really good catching 4 to 5 keepers each time and I caught my best ever at 24 inches.

Cam, No, I am out of the water too.

Everyone, I am talking about WINTER FLOUNDER, not Fluke (summer flounder). I have some friends who would like to do a fishing trip, I just don't understand all these responses. All I am asking is, if they do any Winter Flounder fishing in the Chesapeake, not in NJ, L.I. or Staten Island.
HAVE A HAPPY HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!!

Hey Giorgio, I love the fish, love the shirt (look closely--very funny) and I really like your "shorty" enclosure which just encloses the helm area.

Too answer your question, no. Your best bet is out of Wachapreague Va. late March if it warms up by then.......
