Its so weird, cause It really feels like its easier from the bank than the kayak. Most fish are super easy to find in the yak but I never do good on flounder!
Went out yesterday and got 3 at the dike. Wish I would have gotten there sooner before it started getting hot. Your right about using thinner hooks. I lost two double rigs pretty quick due to not being able to bend the hooks or pop them free. I tied on a couple cheap Walmart ball jigs and that's what I caught my three flounder on. The points will bend over easy on the cheap hooks so I carried a hook sharpener with me and used it several times. A lot easier than tying on another rig.
It was a good day...yall need to all get together take a trip...seen GG in Florida with others need to get outdoors..pops hell make it a party invite oh fish and trips..😂😂
One of these days!! It’s tough for all of us to link up cause we’re always going fishing and making our own plans. Definitely gonna try and plan something soon tho!
🆒 video 🎣 My buddies Thai and Austin were there yesterday and saw y'all. I was OTW to GTown. Thai said he caught a couple dinks. SUPER slow season! 🥵 🌞
I think with the recent changes in our climate that the water temps are higher than normal and the flounder aren't hitting their optimum spawning temps. Just a theory of my own.
Great video with lots of info- where the heck do you park - I always thought that was part of the storage tanks private parking?? Tight lines - PuraSal Angler 🙌🏻
Little dirt / grass lot directly to the right as your pulling on to the bridge. If you look on google maps there’s one black car there to help identify.
To be honest the flounder population has dwindled down since these guides have been gigging out of these huge boats. Taking 6 to 8 people at a time. That’s 30 to 40 at a time. Some guide run twice a night. That’s just slaughtering not fishing
@@RGCfishingg I not biologist but either way taken from the water are fish gets damaged and has to heal to me seems like it would stop the migration alot of places basically ban fishing in areas where migration happens
Awesome video , I was talking to a older guy yesterday while I was flounder fishing, he was telling me that the dredging they do everywhere is what's hurting the population. Idk sounded legit. And you saying that everything what your friend said , it makes since.
I've always said that I think if they want to fix our flounder stocks, they should make flounder a game fish and stop letting commercial fishermen gig them. Gigging is crazy; those guys go all out on the flounder.
I don’t have to much experience on catching flounder, I’ve only been at it for the past 2 years. I catch flounder here and there but it seems since I’ve been targeting them, it’s tough for me to get on the big ones.
The Notorious flounder wall ..love me some flounder action💯💯🤙
So much fun! Too bad it’s shut down.
@@RGCfishinggi did not know that,what spot next,seawolf?
I went there yesterday and caught a keeper 15 incher, that really is a top spot for flounder when it gets colder
Indeed flounder is probably the hardest bay fish to catch

I think is interesting
Thanks!
I live on the mississippi gulf coast. Love fishing salt and brackish water. Most fun...
Absolutely, a tiny red fish fights harder than most things you can get freshwater! Tight Lines

I need to get me a hook sharpener, but yea having to re tie sucks when ur just trying to fish lol

Nice video bro !! I wanna ask you if you can share with me how you get this place ? Where you parked your car ? Thanks
Great video bro !!
Appreciate that man!
Great video. I’ve driven past this spot a few times (before SW park) but I do t see any places to park, where do you park?
there's a little dirt/grass lot down to the right side of the bridge, you will usually se a couple cars parked there.
Great vid.
Thanks fellas!

Yea man, the crazy thing is I know as soon as Nov 1st comes Flounder are gonna start biting like crazy 😂😂
When you show how to tie the rig, the line is so clear which makes your hand look like a mime.
Hahaha, thanks for watching!

Not too sure, it was definitely a hot October flounder didn’t seem to be moving as much.
Cold cold front hitting soon! I cant wait. Any plans to fish as the front hits?
I would say flounder fishing but TPWD banned it 😢 Prob go for bull reds, and the. Big trout when it gets colder.
Been on them hard lately, just like all year. Only difference is the big girls had been out lately.
Yea the small guys are tearing it up. I don’t target them often, but since I have started in the past couple weeks it’s been slow for the keepers.
Excelente 😮
Thanks!
Wow es genial🤭
Thank you!
Mind telling me the mic set up in your action hat please? Thank you in advance

Little dirt lot. Not sure if it’s private or not but that’s where everyone parks.
@@RGCfishingglike where exactly? I just looked on Google maps and couldn’t find anywhere. Great video by the way

Found it !! Thank you
Flounder go offshore to deeper waters to spawn / have they tried increasing the water pressure ? To simulate depths ?
Hmm I’m not sure. We only spoke shortly about the topic.
I don’t understand why you or your dad don’t come to south east Texas sometimes
its something im planning on doing soon!

100% agree, not to mention commercial fisherman can target flounder with a daily bag limit of 30.
Pick-up the trash man, I know you didn't put it there but pick it up.
I can't get a parking spot for here
They have a little grass/ gravel lot. Usually gets filled up pretty quick during prime flounder time.
They need to shut down the popular spots for flounder season because people are still hammering on them
Like poaching or just catch and release. I’m just gonna target different species for the closure. Bull reds and big trout!
@@RGCfishingg I not biologist but either way taken from the water are fish gets damaged and has to heal to me seems like it would stop the migration alot of places basically ban fishing in areas where migration happens
makes since, kinda like closing real deep waters when its super cold to protect the trout.
Where at in Galveston
Bridge heading towards sea wolf park
Should dropped the kayak in right there
😂😂 the parking is so far. It would be hard af to get them over there!
😂 💪 gonna install a crane arm on the truck soon!
@@MDLRFishing lolol. Wheel that bad boy.
@@OffdayTherapy 👍
They do bite good there, buuuuuuuuttttttt.... it has a lot to do with that water treatment plant in the background. 🐟💩🐡
@@dirtywaterboyz3rdcoastflou741 hahah you think they eating poop or it’s just the warm water ?
@RGCfishingg could be the added nutrients. They definitely like the warmer water in the winter.
When was this Christian?
This area looks empty. Usually it's packed here.
This was yesterday at around noon!
Yea I was pretty surprised!
“This spot is insane”… catches all dinks😂
your sleeping on that spot bro. It was dinks on that day but when the big fish are there its ez limits

I never thought of the dredging thing!
Get rid of gigging they take to many when nobody is around

Sorry I don’t believe that research. I agree with closure for the run, but numbers are up in the past ten years.
