Flounder
North Myrtle Beach offers fantastic opportunities to target Flounder, particularly in the inshore waters around the inlets and the Intracoastal Waterway. The fall months, as the water cools, see flounder migrating towards the ocean, making them more concentrated and accessible. Focus on areas with sandy or muddy bottoms near docks, bridges, and creek mouths. Drifting live mullet or mud minnows on a Carolina rig is a highly effective technique. A local's secret: Fish the edges of the ICW channel, especially where it meets shallower flats. Flounder in this area can be ambush predators, so a slow, deliberate presentation is key. Be patient and persistent; sometimes it takes a while to find them, but the reward is well worth the effort. Also, be aware of the strong currents in the inlets, and adjust your weight accordingly to maintain bottom contact.
