Has anyone been flounder fishing in Jersey yet this year? Any keepers? Where did you go?
Size limit is up to 18"! Ouch!
We havent been in a couple of years. We are familiar with the Sea Isle City back bays, but the last few times there have only caught throwbacks. A friend had great sucess in Sandy Hook a few years ago, but I am not familiar with that part of Jersey.
Would be willing to try a new a place if there is a better chance of catching keepers. We have an 18' bayliner, so would only fish bays or inlets, not rough water.
Thanks!

Looks like a lot has been written on the subject, these 4 sites I found interesting.
Particularly Egg Harbor and Delaware bay
18 INCHES? used to be 16" back when I fished there in Sandy Hook, It'll be a challenge to limit out with 18" fish, but it can be done (might take a little longer though)
You'll be in a lot bigger (and better) boat than we used so you might try deeper, or less fished areas.

don't know how the fishing is in Jersey, however, there is alot of talk about closing the summer flounder season up that way this year, so you might want to check and see if they are still going to be legal to keep prior to going fishing.
