- This video goes in depth into how to catch flounder and fluke using several flounder rigs that work amazingly well at catching flounder and fluke in almost any condition. These are the only rigs you need to catch flounder and the rigs that I personally have used for years. Inshore fishing for flounder can be tough and with these simple flounder and fluke rigs you can get out there and put more flounder and fluke in your boat.

Finnaly a video that helps I'm a fresh water transitioning to salt due to location change thank you so much
Man I’m glad it helped
Probably one of the most informative videos I've seen on flounder fishing. Thanks so much for the knowledge.
Thanks man I appreciate that! I hope it helps out a few in your boat!
I agree
Anglers,
After speaking with some excellent fishermen from the northeast, I asked them to view this post and comment on these fishing techniques and if they would work in the Rhode Island Connecticut New York region. They absolutely will Work beautifully!!
Awesome, good to know. Thanks!
I live close to Gulf Shores & although I started out strictly surf casting, over time got to where I enjoy the jetties and inlets a lot more, looking for flounder. I like being able to fish the same tactics for the most part and just adjusting weight for the water column & strike zones. Love saltwater jig fishing!
Well explained, strait to the point. Excellent! Thanks bro!
Thanks man I appreciate it!!
Absolutely spot on
I'm only sorry I didn't find your channel sooner! Love the tips from fellow locals
Thanks brother I appreciate it!!!
Thank you from New Zealand ..great ideas and info
Thanks!
Great advice. I usually use the tandem rig more for specs, but they definitely work well for flounder also.
The tandem rig has been a solid rig for me in deeper water.
Praying for you and all of the Gulf residents thru this storm stay safe bro.
Thanks brother, we did ok but there’s definitely a lot of damage down around the area.
To take the time to explain your list and with the passion of a fisherman is outstanding! Fishing is so damn addicting. I appreciate your passion and appreciate tips you’ve provided. Thank you

NC salt fish guy here. #1 rig with a Flat jig, have never heard of the flat jig? Looks like a bucktail jig to me.
Well it’s called a flats jig
Awesome channel bro glad I found it, Im from WA gonna go and try and hit some flounder/sand dabs in the puget sound in the future. Great tips bro keep em coming
Thanks bro I’m glad it was helpful!!!
THANKS BROTHER SO GLAD I FOUND YOU JUST RETIRED , I am a small mouth guy and love to fish flounder you just fired Me up . THANKS I FISH A LOT OF PADLE TAILS I HAVE ONLY FISHED FLOUNDER WITH LIVE BAIT .
@@dougmarshall2684 glad you like the channel!! I use live bait from time to time but there’s something about feeling that thump on an artificial lure! Thanks for the support hope the video helps out!
nicely done thanks
Thank you!!
Great video! I love #4 Carolina rig...I use 1/2 or 3/4 oz. If it wont work than the current is too strong. I go to my next spot. 8" to 10" is perfect length leader as well. Last week in 2 days I caught 35 or so flounder in the same spot. Damnit Jim! I use 2/0 kahle hooks and love em. Used to not set the hook on circle hooks and lost a bunch at the boat when they would spit the hook. . Lol you know your stuff bro! Not a fan of artificial. Flats jig is same as Bucktail?
Thank you bro
Im with ya
Bro you really are about one of the best inshore fisherman ive seen. I have been binge watching you and you know your shit. Can u recommend a good bait caster for salt water?
Not even gonna lie, just watching you and taking the tips and inshore info you share, i have became such a better trout angler, im 32 been flounder fishing since i was 10 and i never really been able to intice them to bite, im getting better now. Not sure if you know it or not but every bit of info u take the time to put out, im taking it in. Thanks for that brother
Man that’s awesome dude I really appreciate it!! I prefer the Shimano Curado 70 MGL. It’s one of the best baitcaster coming in at around $220
Man I love your content I'm from Jackson AL
Awesome man I’m from Chatom AL myself, not to far from there. I go up to Jackson to Crappie Fish pretty often.
Maybe I'll see you on the water sometime
Great vid I would also add a float and a jig head and use that to pull flounder off rock bottoms because of the abilty to put that minnow or any bait just close enough to skim the bottom
Thanks man, good point!
Big tournament coming up in 3 weeks I hope your video helps me I can't wait to try the buck tail, it's a slam tournament first place is a hobie 14' 360 Mike iaconelli edition with a wrap and a bunch of extras
Man that sounds awesome good luck to you brother!!
I spent the whole summer trying to catch my first flounder but nothing ,,, thank you for sharing your knowledge
Man they can be some of the toughest fish out there to catch. I’ve had lots of days where I spend more time scratching my head and then some days it’s almost every cast. Stay at it brother, you’ll get em!
@@southernsalt will do sir,,, thank you 🙏
Thanks 😊 🙏
Excellent video, thank you. I use a Carolina rig here in the UK for bass fishing with worm bait. What bait do you use on that rig? I'd like to try and catch more flounders as they have become harder to find where I live, I'm looking at trying a few new methods.
I lost count with fingers and toes the times you said “right”. Anyhow good video 👍
😂
Good stuff..thx
Thank you!
Good video they brother. I like those setup. Please man you and your family. I'm praying that everything will turn out okay for you. I know we going to have some load coming towards your area. I know you will been busy but I would like to meet you for a minute if I'm in your area. Well this is if my job would let me drive. I went kayaking this weekend and dislocated my shoulder that I just got out of the cast back here in June or July. Again man you and your family please stay safe.
Definitely, be safe out there on the road brother!
Outstanding! Now, will this work at Rhode Island Connecticut or NEW YORK?? Let’s find out!!🎣🎣🎣🎣
Let me know how you do!
Great information and advice 👍👌 ...The Argentinian from Hilton Head S.C
Thanks brother!!!
I was replying to something else how it got hooked up with the flounder I will never know..sorry about that ....I’m in the uk and looking for tips that may work this side of the pond 😃😃🇬🇧 I think we’re missing a trick of two over here in the uk .....I must come over to the states fishing once we’re allowed to travel again .ive been to the Bahamas but not fished the states yet ...tight lines be good andy thomas 👍👍👍👍👍🇬🇧
Good video but was confused by your favorite. Need a close-up of how you hook up 2 different things on same hook.
Last rig is my favorite.
it is possible though, lol. Fishing on Calcasieu, Louisiana, my dad literally and actually caught a “rat” redfish and a hard head on the same hook, at the same time. Durned hardhead tried to steal the shrimp from the redfish hahaha. We got a picture to prove it too!
I took a reel with a bober and sparkle thingy with a piece of shrimp on the end and caught 5 flounder back to back. Biggest was only 18 inches, the smallest was obviously 15.
thankyou.
do scents on lures work like procure etc?
i live in norfolk virginia so i fish willoughby bay and chesepeake bay.
I do not use a whole lot of scent except for Gulp lures
Hey, just wanted to agree with you on the flats jig. If you don’t know about them you def need to check out Buggs lures they are by far the best I’ve come across. I really highly recommend them!
It’s funny you say that, I just did a couple of videos on the Buggs Jigs, OUTSTANDING product!
Southern Salt Kayak Fishing have you tried the click bait, curl tail and flats bugg? Those are the ones I use most.
Not yet. I’m placing an order soon.
Great video. I live in Pensacola and frequently fish Bayou Cumbest (MS/AL line). Im looking for the "flats jig" but cant seem to replicate that jig. 8:17
Thanks man. Check out the flats jigs made by Buggs Fishing. You should be able to find it on their website
this is fantastic and I certainly agree, but the video assumes people either already have all these rods and reels or are able to afford them. But what if you cannot or are on a budget? That’s me. I just gotta retie every time. I definitely plan to get more rods and reels but decent quality combos run at least 200 USD from what I have seen. And, so I am stuck with my one rod and reel, currently.
Was wondering what weight you would recommend for depth? I’m trying to figure out if 3/8 or 1/2 is better for 6-10 feet. Thanks so much
Depending on current 3/8 should be fine. The goal is to use the least amount of weight possible but still stay on the bottom.
I like the way you think. I also have seen people fishing with 2 or 3 feet of leader. My question is what month is the best time to fish for flounder? I live down south and I go to Port Aransas Aransas pass in those areas not to mention corpus Christi. What month is the best time to go?
Really from April to October is AWESOME but the flounder run happens here around October-November so that would be best for me
Hey what is that blue rod you had at the end? It looks pretty cool.
It’s a Shimano glf rod.
Nc flounder season opens Sept 1st to 14th. I'll be fishing off a kayak in the intercoastal/marsh area. What would you recommend to use?
I’ve been doing really well with a 4 and 5 inch gulp grub lately. Fishing a marsh system I think these are hard to beat.
@@southernsalt ok thanks. Kinda new to fishing terminology. What kind weight and size hook? Would you recommend live bait at all?
I don’t use much live bait at all. I would use a 1/4 oz Eye Strike Trout Eye jig head.
Could you post a link to Amazon or BassPro where I can buy the rig set up bait and hook?
Liked
🙌
The last rig… What kind of baitcaster is that and is it saltwater?
Bro I ain’t throwin no tandem rig 😂 😂 that’s just a recipe for disaster for me lol I’d have that joint all jacked up on every cast and just end up throwing that shit right into the inlet 😂
😂 😂 😂 right on 🤙
😂 😂 😂 right on 🤙
Could you make a list of links to the tackle you used?
I post most of the in the description I’ll update it.
What cast rod do you use??
I use a Chubby Rods 7’2” Med, fast. It’s my all time favorite rod for the price.
Where can I get the flats jig from
These flats jigs are Tsunami flats jigs from Field and Stream but the best flats jigs on the market are Buggs Flats Jigs. You can get those on the Buggs Jigs website.
I'm sorry what are u calling the last rig with the feathers a "flax" jig ??
It’s a flats jig.
You staying dry in this hurricane?
Yessir! How about y’all?
@@southernsalt doin good power has been goin off and on
Y’all stay safe brother!
What rod is that you’re holding at 1:30?
It’s a custom rod I built.
@@southernsalt nice, anymore info? I’m a rod and gear junky
So these rigs here go for East Coast to
Only difference is adjusting the weight to match your depth.
A flat fish
I thought flounder was bottom feeders and faa
They are, did I give you the impression that they were not??
The heavy rock doesn’t go with fishing
I have no clue what you’re talking about
They are not Flounder, they are Fluke. There are no Flounder where you are. So, if your so good, You should know. Another know it all.
And where exactly do you think I’m located?
Gulf coast are definitely called summer flounder.
