yeah cct, their not as plentiful as days gone by. We use to do very well right in Northport/Huntington harbors and back in the Nissequoge river. Seemed like alot of shorts [or postage stamps as we called em] but alot of them. Now they are few and far between but most of the flatties I've gotten are nice size 2-3 1/2 lbs. I'll take three keepers that size over 25 shorties any day! Never really thought of the flounder as being over fished, most people say it's to boring. Also it seems like they take longer to get here and the "season" is over before it ever starts. Does anybody know if they still allow that short two week season in the fall???If I recall in late sept/ early oct. they open the season again ......can't remember...gettin old
