Flounder
Lakeport anglers seeking Flounder should focus their efforts in the Sabine Lake estuary. This area, with its mix of fresh and saltwater, provides the perfect habitat for these flatfish. The fall months, particularly October and November, are legendary for flounder gigging and fishing as they migrate out to the Gulf. For anglers, slow-rolling soft plastics along the bottom is a highly effective technique. Focus on areas with sandy or muddy bottoms near channel edges and points. A local tip: use a Carolina rig with a short leader to keep your bait close to the bottom. Also, be mindful of the tides – an outgoing tide often concentrates flounder near the mouths of bayous and channels. Remember to check the local regulations regarding size and bag limits, as they can vary. Sabine Lake offers several public boat ramps and wade-fishing access points, providing ample opportunities to target these tasty fish.
