Im staying in a condo across the street from Little Bay. Lots of docks and structure but not sure about water as it only has the two inlets. Anyone ever wade these docks and catch flounder? Or the docks further south in town just past the shrimp boats and bait stands? Im just looking for a place to throw on boots and try and catch a few flounder. Have the boat out back and will get that figured out but really just looking for a quickie spot either to walk or quick run in truck. Thanks

Flounder are opportunist and wait for the bait coming out of the cuts. It can be anything draining from a culvert to a bar ditch emptying into the bay and they will be there.
This advice is stellar...
.Im not great at much....jack of all trades, master of none.....but I've really learned to pattern flounder over the years after all the countless night walking with a gig and a light in the shallows....I almost always find them and bring home limits even on foot with no boat....I know what spots will produce the best in my bay system based upon time of year, tide, wind direction and recent rainfall.... but I don't care where you fish for flatfish, find where the marsh drains and cuts are and when the tide is moving out and they will lay along the perimeter waiting to ambush a meal...its instinctive for them
