Combe Martin SAC member Rob Scoines enjoyed a short session in the Taw estuary landing five flounder to 1lb 6oz. Whilst many stop fishing the estuary after Christmas I suspect that good sport can be enjoyed for a few weeks yet with every chance of a large specimen full of roe prior to spawning.
The Taw estuary is fishing well for quality flounder with every chance of that elusive 2lb plus specimen before the end of the year, John Shapland has been targetting flounder over the past few days landing near specimens of 1lb 15oz, 1lb 14.5oz and 1lb 14oz.
One of the local mystery’s is the well established fact that Taw estuary flounder tend to grow bigger than Torridge estuary Flounder?
