Flounder
While Fort White itself is inland, it offers easy access to the Gulf Coast for targeting Flounder. Areas like Steinhatchee and Suwannee, a reasonable drive away, offer excellent flounder fishing opportunities. These flatfish are masters of camouflage, lying in wait on the sandy or muddy bottom near structure. The best time to target flounder is during the fall and spring migrations as they move in and out of the estuaries. Drifting live shrimp or mud minnows along the bottom is a classic and effective technique. A key tip is to use a Carolina rig with just enough weight to keep your bait on the bottom. Also, look for areas with subtle changes in depth or current, as these can be flounder hotspots. The flounder in this region are prized for their delicious flavor, making them a rewarding target for anglers.
