We dont have flounder in SoCal, probably easiest way to tell difference.

Ummm...SD Bay's got a Flounder...they LOVE Ghost Shrimp. Used to catch a bunch off Shelter Island Pier way back when. Called them Starry Flounder. Small mouth, gut hooked every time...

Thanks for the info.

FYI, this particular fish was thrown back. Err on the side of caution. Definitely not 22"

Ya I catch flounders when I fish with ghost shrimp in the bay. Little suction mouths and diamond shaped.
