Flounders

[Morston]

We took my son's boat over to Tangalooma for a few days and anchored up near the wrecks.

I did a bit of fishing but only from where we anchored.

Caught a variety of fish from Whiting to Eagle rays.

What surprised me was the number of flounder which we caught (several a day).

I did not realise they were so common. I did not keep any as the freezer was not working properly on the boat, however, I understand they are good eating.

Can ayone suggest anywhere I can catch some more within the Brisbane region, as far as the Gold coast.

I am usually landbased at present so would prefer land based options.

Does anyone ever target them seriously?

Thanks

Nudgee Beach has a few, use peeled prawn as bait. Most estuaries would hold quite a few Flounder so just fish around.

Over at the sandflats near redcliffe at the base of the pine river is a good place on low tide, i have caught them there before, as tailorboi said peeled prawns or try squid.

Thanks for that.....I will give those places a go.

I have recently moved here from the UK so the fishing is pretty new to me. I like the idea of catcing a few different fish and if they are good eating so much the better.

I have a lot to learn
