Flounder
For flounder fishing near Macclenny, a trip to the Jacksonville area and its surrounding estuaries is in order. The waters around Jacksonville, including the St. Johns River and the Intracoastal Waterway, provide excellent flounder habitat. These flatfish are ambush predators, so focus on areas with sandy or muddy bottoms near structure like docks, oyster beds, and grass edges. A Carolina rig with live mud minnows or finger mullet is a classic and effective presentation. Slow-dragging soft plastic lures along the bottom can also produce results. The fall months, particularly October and November, are prime time for flounder as they migrate offshore to spawn. A great access point is the Sisters Creek boat ramp, offering access to productive flounder flats. Be patient and persistent, as flounder can be masters of disguise. The flounder population in this region includes both Southern and Gulf flounder, and quality fish are regularly caught.
