Flounder
If you're targeting flounder in the Henlopen Acres area, you're in for a treat. This coastal town offers access to some prime flatfish habitat in the Rehoboth Bay and Indian River Bay. These shallow, grassy bays are ideal for drifting or anchoring and casting around structure. The best time to target flounder here is from late spring to early fall, with the peak usually occurring in the summer months. Look for warmer water temperatures and good tidal flow. A local tip: try fishing near the Indian River Inlet bridge pilings or along the edges of the channels. These areas often hold flounder ambushing prey. Also, be aware that the flounder in this region can be quite selective, so experiment with different baits and rigs until you find what they're biting on. Minnows, squid, and Gulp! artificials are popular choices. The flounder population in Delaware is carefully managed, so be sure to check the current regulations for size and creel limits before you head out.
