Southern Flounder are flatfish common in U.S. Atlantic and Gulf estuaries. Masters of camouflage, they bury in sand or mud, ambushing shrimp, crabs, and baitfish. They migrate offshore to spawn in winter. Known for sudden strikes, they’re a favorite among inshore anglers and highly valued for their delicate flesh.
