I agree with Shamoo - they do look like five bearded rocklings. Often the beards stick to the fish's snout, you need to rub a finger over it to make them stand out.
They appear to be very common at the moment - and unfortunately not much else about.

Well done on the flounder - 48 cm is an impressive fish.
Cod season Winter 2013/14: 117 cod (best fish: 6.5 lbs)
