Flounder
If you're looking to target flounder near Medley, you'll need to head east towards the coast. While Medley is inland, its proximity to Biscayne Bay and the surrounding waterways makes it a convenient base for flounder fishing. Focus your efforts on areas with sandy or muddy bottoms near docks, bridges, and channel edges. Flounder are ambush predators, so they often lie in wait for unsuspecting prey. Live shrimp, mud minnows, and small jigs are all effective baits. The best time to target flounder near Medley is during the fall and winter months (October-February) when they migrate inshore to spawn. A practical tip: work your bait slowly along the bottom, as flounder are not aggressive strikers. Look for areas with slight current, as this will help to distribute your scent and attract flounder. Consider launching from Homestead Bayfront Park for access to the southern part of Biscayne Bay. The flounder in this area are generally good-sized, with some reaching upwards of 5 pounds.
