Flounder
Rockledge, Florida, is a great jumping-off point for flounder fishing in the Indian River Lagoon. This area offers a mix of grassy flats, docks, and bridges where flounder ambush prey. Fall and winter are traditionally the best times to target flounder, as they migrate inshore. Focus your efforts on sandy or muddy bottoms near structure. A Carolina rig with a live mud minnow or shrimp is a classic and effective presentation. Slowly drag the bait along the bottom, feeling for the subtle tap of a flounder bite. Docks and bridges along the Banana River also hold flounder. Local tip: The Highway 528 Causeway offers several access points for wade fishing or launching a small boat. Be mindful of the current and avoid fishing during periods of extreme high or low tide. Flounder tend to be more active during periods of moderate tidal flow.
