Well done on the flounder! :D Did you have any bling on the rigs? I heard that flatties like the bling but im just wondering if they would see it in the dark.

Lots of anglers use bling but these were caught on straight rag,
as i was fishing for bass and it is my prefered method of fishing.
I have always caught flounders and bass in the dark with out bling. :)
