Flounder
Flounder fishing near Greenwood, Delaware, centers around the Delaware Bay. While Greenwood is inland, it offers easy access to launch points. The key to success is targeting the sandy or muddy bottom in relatively shallow waters, especially during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall. Drift fishing with bucktails tipped with squid or minnows is a popular and effective method. Look for areas near inlets, channels, and sloughs where flounder lie in wait for ambush. A local's secret is to use a stinger hook on your bucktail, as flounder are notorious for short strikes. Be mindful of the tidal currents, as they can be strong in the bay. Flounder in this area often average 14-18 inches, but larger 'doormats' are certainly possible. Check the Delaware fishing regulations for size and creel limits before heading out.
