Flounder
Flounder fishing in Green Bay, Virginia, offers a rewarding experience, especially if you know where to look. This area provides shallow, grassy flats and muddy bottoms perfect for flounder to ambush prey. The best time to target flounder here is typically from late spring through early fall, when water temperatures are warmer. Focus on areas with good tidal flow, as this brings in baitfish and other small crustaceans that flounder feed on. Drifting with live minnows or small pieces of squid is a common and effective technique. Be sure to drag your bait slowly along the bottom to entice a bite. A crucial local tip: the shallower flats are best fished on an incoming tide, as flounder move into these areas to feed. Launching from the public ramp provides easy access, but be aware of the shallow draft and potential for soft mud. Flounder in this area are known for their delicate flavor, making them a prized catch.
