Flounder
Targeting Flounder around Doral requires a bit of a drive, but the rewards can be well worth it. Biscayne Bay, easily accessible from Doral, offers excellent opportunities for these tasty flatfish. The best time to target Flounder is during the fall and winter months as they migrate inshore. Look for them around structure like docks, bridges, and channel edges, especially where there's a good tidal flow. A simple Carolina rig with a live shrimp or mud minnow bounced slowly along the bottom is a proven tactic. For shore access, try fishing from the seawalls around Dinner Key Marina or Matheson Hammock Park. If you have a boat, drifting along the edges of the Intracoastal Waterway can be very productive. Be patient and persistent, as Flounder can be masters of camouflage. Don't be afraid to experiment with different baits and retrieve speeds to find what the fish are responding to on any given day.
