Flounder
Mount Pleasant and the surrounding Charleston area are renowned for their flounder fishing. The inshore waters, with their muddy bottoms and abundant structure, provide ideal habitat. The fall months, as flounder migrate offshore, are particularly productive. Focus on areas near inlets, docks, and creek mouths where flounder ambush prey. A local tip is to slowly drag a Carolina-rigged mud minnow or Gulp! swimming mullet along the bottom. Flounder are masters of camouflage, so patience is key. Be mindful of the strong tides in the area, as they can influence flounder movement and feeding behavior. Also, pay attention to water clarity, as flounder prefer slightly murky water. Remember to check the current size and creel limits to ensure compliance with local regulations. With the right approach and a bit of patience, you'll be reeling in these tasty flatfish in no time.
