Flounders often seem to have spots like this,at least in other parts of Europe like Belgium,Holland and Denmark. Always nice to catch a lot of flounders from the shore like this.Was on a north Mayo beach,near the mouth of a little river west of Downpatrick a couple of years ago and caught nice big flounder on the locally dug big lug. The children had there first Irish flounder there and enjoyed eating them too.Great sport on spinning gear and ideal to try a flounderspoon.Nice catch of 48 you guys !Send some back to get there grandma I hope ?
