Flounders Hit White Jigs?
 

Someone told me that flounders are crazy about anything white and will hit like crazy? Is this true or just a fish story?

I went out to scope out by the 210 overpass and they were jumping all over...seems like there's a ton of food for them there. Did not see them chasing any little white fish, so thought I'd check if this was true or BS. Thanks!

Flounder jumping all over? You sure it wasnt mullet?

And yes they do eat white gulp swimming mullet I find better than other colors..

Get yourself some white curltail GULP! You'll load your boat with flounder

Haha!!

caught some nice ones on white cocahos but I am told white anything is pretty good. If you are lookin at fishin that area watch the ships but you can catch reds and flounder over by the oilwell roads on the west side of channel its shallow and people catch specs on north side of that little island under the bridge

Yep. Pearl gulp shrimp, pearl swimming mullet, chartruese swimming mullet. Pearl/char and glow/char sand eel jrs. Ask longcast. He knows all about the flounder lol

I have always had good luck with flounder with any lure that has a white tail.

I've caught them on white spinnerbaits before.

Its fun when they are hittin spinner baits

We caught a bunch of em one day and they kept fooling us when we set the hook.

Like pullin dead weight till it sees the boat then they take off

they also love a long strip of white fish belly or a strip of white squid...

Flounder
 

Had an old time fisherman that fished Grand Isle a lot. Ran out of white plastics while catching flounder. Tore off a piece of white T-shirt and kept on catching. So as I've heard, white is good for floundering

Have caught many flounder on a white cocahoe with a red tail. So imo flounder love white.

I have heard about the trout bellys but never tried it, i always catch them on chartreuse. Glow/Chart saltwater assasain minnow, or gulp chart swim mullet has always done me right

White or chartreuse sparkle beetles stinger tails or gulp. I don't like the swimmin mullets for flounders cuz the tails get bit off fast and they too expensive. Regular stinger tails chartreuse is my favorite tipped wit a shad or piece of croaker fillet or speck belly. Anything fishy really. I can catch 2 limits on 1 stingertail vs 5 fish at the most on a gulp. Gulps work but so do the cheaper baits.

I like the Pink gulp swimming mullet 3"

Me, my brother Goathead, and Eman's little brother Soupbone would catch the hell out of the flounder in Grand Isle on a white cocahoe minnow w/ a red tail fished in tandem along the 1st gut or 2nd gut in the surf on Elmer's Island or Fourchon Beach. Sometimes we would also throw a regular speck rig. We would tip it every now and then with bait shrimp or cut croaker. More often than not we would also catch some huge channel mullet/whiting, black drum and reds in the surf while fishing for the flounder. Doubles were not uncommon. Sometimes 2 different kinds of fish.
Good times yeah!!

200 series white bandit lure

I think I may need to stock up on white baits now. I've heard the same thing a while back but kinda forgot about it.
