its a myth, thats rumored to happen around Decfebuly.

Now.
Fish the surf around the passes with a live minnow or jig tipped w/ shrimp and you'll get on em.

I was always told those little quarter sized flounder looking things you catch trawling aren't the same species of flounder you catch to eat, I was told they are a different species that don't get much bigger then what you see and its rare for one to be more then a 2-3 inches when mature.

I never knew enough to argue either way but tghose little sand suckers we called em are great bait alive or dead, throw it out there and its gone in 60 seconds flat lol.

I used to argue that they were baby flounders but they would laugh and say nope. none of those who had an opinion on it knew any facts its just a bunch of fishermen sayin what they knew from old timers teachin em things.

I've caught bass in bayou beniot and they threw up those silver dolor sized flounder creatures in the live well.

[SIZE=3]Great conversation guys, I’ve been fishing the shore line of LA for 50 years and never know the flat fish made a run for the open water, know they were obviously there and the inland waters also but migrate awesome, never too old to learn, thanks.[/SIZE]

I caught a 3 pound flounder at fausse point state park bass fishing a few years ago. Never seen them that far north.

We've caught quite a few in Lake Fausse Point in crab cages.
