Flounder
Flounder fishing near Point Pleasant, Pennsylvania, relies on the Delaware River's estuarine environment. While Point Pleasant is quite a ways upriver, flounder can sometimes be found in the deeper channels and mud flats, especially during their spring and fall migrations. Look for areas with structure, such as submerged logs or docks, where they can ambush prey. Focus your efforts on the outgoing tide when flounder are actively feeding. Drifting with a fluke rig baited with squid or killifish is a productive method. A local tip: the area around the Point Pleasant Canal offers relatively easy access to the river and can be a good starting point. Remember to check the water clarity, as flounder prefer clearer waters for sight-feeding.
