Drifting for Doormats: Dauphin Island Channel Flounder

Big flounder lurk in the Dauphin Island ship channel.

The Dauphin Island ship channel holds trophy flounder. Drift with the tide, dragging a bucktail jig along the bottom. Feel for the tap. These channel flounder fight hard for their size. We landed several doormats over 8 pounds.
