Back Bay Keeper flounder mid-september

IMG_9044

The flounder were hitting my paddle tail rubber bait, as aggressively as the striped bass and  bluefish. Dayna caught the biggest  flounder today it weighed  4.8 pound.  She caught it on an unscented rubber bait.   I am sure you could limit out on flounder in the back bay, if you targeted them, using peanut bunker as bait. We had a good mid – day striped bass bite, but the bluefish   continue to dominate. The water temperature was 70 degrees on the top of the tide.

This is the best time of year to vacation in Cape May County, NJ.  No crowds, plenty of fish, reduced prices and fantastic weather.

    Debbie, nice to hear from you.
    The flounder fishing has been excellent for September in the back waters. CJ Polhamus caught 30 plus flounder yesterday.
