Flounder on lures
Just seen a couple of clips on you tube of American lads lure fishing for flounder with Berkley gulp shrimps and was wondering has anyone ever tried it here.

Re: Flounder on lures
I've caught them on lures and the fly.
I usually use small crab and shrimp patterns on the fly, and skip them over the sand. I use much the same technique with the lures, i use the smallest size sinking rapala with the diving vane removed, and gain skip this along the bottom. Thats not a very refined technique though.
Catching flatties on lures is brilliant fun, even if its just for the novelty of it.

Re: Flounder on lures
As quick as i can manage while still giving the fly time to hit the bottom again. Short and sharp strips. I try and have the fly as heavy as i can while still be able to cast properly.
