Never seen or ate one. I'm jealous.

Dandy! Bigger than I've caught.

To me they equal or surpass crappie in flavor. Mild, sweet and flaky. Somewhat delicate in how you handle it in cooking.

Good job, we call them Fluke here, I believe the minimum size is now 19", I may be wrong they keep messing with the sizes, and the possession limit is 3, for recreational...

Good eating,,,Bleed them out and ice slush them and they make sushi grade....enjoy!

That's a larger flounder than I ever caught when I lived in Connecticut. Are you going to cook it?

We gigged them at night in the Gulf near Biloxi back in the 1960s.

Scale that thang on both sides cut to the bone and feather open and stuff it with a shrimp stuffing made with bread crumbs and bake in the oven. Or you can scale filet and pan fry. That is one of my favs.

I like just the filets fried, but had it like this at a restaurant in Steinhatchee, FL.

Dang it was GOOD!

When I was a wee lad we rowed out about 400 yards off the beach on Whidbey Island and caught a whole boat full of flounder using clam strips for bait. They're very plentiful in the bays and estuaries on the Pacific coast.


My fear of moving stairs is escalating!
