I loved those trips we always limited out & I never had a problem getting my limit of tasty fillets of nice sized flatties. I hope he does it again I know that when you fish for the stripers back in the keyport flats by the clam boats there are flounder mixed in with the bass you just got to fish for them.

Doug, Did it for decades but at two flounder nobody want's to book a charter exclusively for flounder.If we are bass fishing on the Keyport flats we put a couple flounder rods out in April.As many charter boat capts. have expressed ''flounder bait is the most expensive''.Chum logs and worms are a fortune.Flat of worms,16 chum logs,bag of mussels=$80-$100.Ouch!!!!
