Fun times! Flounder is great to eat!
I love them, unfortunately couldn't fillet with one hand without risking a bad cut along with sprained wrist. It was not waisted. It's now cut bait waiting in the freezer
Caught a little croaker and as I was reeling it in something huge grabbed it and pulled about 75 yards of line then spit it out. He was bit pretty good. Immediately put it on big mo! I didn't let him hold on too it long enough and lost him.
It's time
@tree_ghost , I finally saw a fishing cart in a storeā¦ it was the big version of the one we haveā¦. 450 before taxes

Caught a croaker for cut bait. Crab got the head. Something hit hard lost the middle section of my cut bait. Tossed the tail out and the drag buzzed like a chainsaw! It cut my line ā¦. Just got back from Walmart with 4 wire leaders and I can't wait till morning!
Lost a flounder on a four inch white jig just as I was pulling it on the sea wall.

You fishing circle hooks on the cut bait?
Get some single strand wire and a pack of quality swivels for the toothy critter. Use a haywire twist on the wire. Use circle hooks and hook the bait so that the hook is very easily ripped out of the baitā¦. Hook it just in the edge of the bait through a little bit of the skin.
Flounder are notorious for getting off as you try to lift them out of the water. Most serious flounder fisherman use a net for this reason.
How's your wrist?

Been using circle hooks.. taking the advice on hooking the bait. The dang wrist gets a little better each day, at least it isn't black, purple and yellow looking now
