    Fishing Four Seasons Pier....Flounder Help

    My teenage sons and I are coming to stay at Four Seasons in two weeks. We are planning to fish the condo pier as much as possible. Our target is anything but catfish....actually we hope to catch some flounder. I don't know what I'm doing....based on research I'm bringing a bait bucket with aerator for live bait. All other advice would be appreciated and thanks for your posts year round....I sincerely enjoy reading from up here in Tennessee.

    Bull minnows Carolina rigged with about 1/2 oz egg sinker would be my choice for flounder. I'd put on a Gotcha for Spanish or Bluefish.

    Do move the rig slowly or short-move/pause. Flounder are ambush feeders, not seekers of prey.

    We always did real well on bubbles at Fours Seasons too. I've also caught several spanish on 1/2 oz cotton cordell silver spoons. I would retrieve them really fast where they were skipping on top of the water.

    Pier#r I'm sure we can work that out. We check in on the 8th and start fishing on the 9th. Let me know how to reach you and we can set it up.

    Thanks to everyone for your advice.
