Flounder
Flounder gigging and angling near Angleton, Texas, can be incredibly rewarding, especially in the fall during the annual flounder run. The shallow, muddy flats and back bays of the Galveston Bay system provide ideal habitat for these flatfish. The migration occurs as flounder move from the bays into the Gulf to spawn. Focus your efforts around lighted piers and docks at night, as these areas attract baitfish, which in turn attract flounder. A useful local tip is to use a small jighead with a soft plastic grub bounced slowly along the bottom. Be mindful of the regulations regarding size and bag limits, as they are strictly enforced. Also, be prepared for varying water clarity due to weather conditions and tidal influences; sometimes, a bright lure can make all the difference.
