Using Bass Assassin soft baits to catch flounder

With size limits getting higher and higher for flounder more anglers who target the flatfish are concentrating on catching the big doormat variety. Flounder that range up and over the 20 inch mark have different habits than smaller flatfish. Small flounder are often found spread out in inlets and sandy waterways whereas larger flounder tend to orientate themselves to structure where they can ambush bigger prey.

A great way to fish such structure is to use soft baits like Bass Assassin lures, which many flounder guides have gone to. Around docks, bridges, jetties, and marsh grass artificials are easier to fish than live bait and big flounder love to hit them. Plus you don't have to wait to set the hook on the flounder but can hit the fish right away, which makes fishing with soft baits for flounder much more fun.
