The flounder bite in Palm Coast has been on for me the last few trips. Had 6 today with some fat mangroves and a bunch of the usual suspects.

These guys took a day off to go fishing. They took this catch to a local restaurant for a big lunch. These days you have to be prepared to catch a ton of catfish between the more desired reds, trout sea bass and occasional flounder. At least the cats keep you busy. The trout bite is good but, true to summer patterns we caught a bunch of just short trout and sea bass. Good times were had by all.

After an unfortunate prop collision with a rock, I thankfully got to borrow my sons boat to pull off this trip without cancelling and disappointing these Geargia boys. After a few days of most guides catching "shorts" we managed a respectable haul of 3 flounder a sheepshead, a black drum and a Mangrove snapper. They were accompanied by some jacks and other short flounder and black drum. At the end of the day a nice meat haul for dinner. It's already very hot. I'ld suggest get out early and get back before the Florida oven heats up!
