Flounder
Targeting flounder near Pembroke Pines means heading towards the saltwater estuaries and shallow flats along the coast. The Intracoastal Waterway and the channels leading to the Atlantic Ocean are prime areas. Fall and early winter are generally considered the best times for flounder, as they migrate inshore. Look for these flatfish around docks, bridges, and any structure that provides ambush points. A Carolina rig with a live mud minnow or finger mullet is a highly effective presentation. Drifting these baits slowly along the bottom is key. Pay attention to tidal movements, as flounder often feed more actively during periods of strong tidal flow. A local tip: focus on areas with a sandy or muddy bottom near grassy edges. Flounder are masters of camouflage, so a slow, deliberate presentation is crucial. While trophy-sized flounder are possible, most catches are in the 12-16 inch range.
