4/14/24 I fished along the beach today and walked to Venice beach before I turned around and came back. I started out fishing for ladyfish with a one inch white bucktail jig. I caught three of them and also caught a 15 inch snook with it. I switched over to a white DOA shrimp and started catching flounder instead of the trout was looking for. I wound up catching 7 flounder...most of them under 13 inches but did catch and keep one 14 1/2 incher. I kept thinking the next flounder I caught would be a good one but that never happened. I wound up catching 6 ladyfish 7 flounder and the small snook. I didn't take piturres of all the small flounder I caught. Was a fun day of fishing. beach fishing report for the no boat people that like to play/fish along the beach. Report from Bro In-Law Don.
Always wanted to catch a snook.

The flounder south of NC are, for the most part, southern flounder, a different species than, the summer flounder in NJ. Different biology. That is part of the reason for smaller legal size.
