Flounder
Selbyville, Delaware, is a great location for accessing some excellent Flounder fishing. The nearby Assawoman Bay and Indian River Bay are prime spots to target these flatfish. The best time to fish for Flounder is during the summer months (June-August) when the water has warmed up. Drifting with live minnows, squid strips, or Gulp! artificial baits is a highly effective technique. Focus on areas with sandy or muddy bottoms, especially near channels and inlets. Many anglers have success anchoring and chumming to attract flounder to their boat. Public boat ramps provide easy access to the bays. A fish finder can be invaluable for locating drop-offs and other structure where Flounder tend to congregate. Remember that Flounder fishing can be tide-dependent, so plan your trips around periods of moving water. Pay close attention to the local regulations regarding size and bag limits.
