Flounder
If you're looking for some tasty Flounder, Long Beach, New York, offers some excellent fishing opportunities. These bottom-dwelling fish are a popular target, especially in the bays and estuaries surrounding the city. Spring and fall are the best times to target them, as they migrate into shallower waters to feed and spawn. Drifting with small jigs tipped with sandworms or pieces of clam is a highly effective technique. Focus your efforts around structure such as docks, pilings, and channels. A local tip is to use a chum pot filled with ground clams to attract Flounder to your fishing area. Access is available from various marinas and piers along Reynolds Channel. Be sure to check the local regulations regarding size and bag limits before heading out. Patience is key, as Flounder can be subtle biters.
