Caught this in the Delta

Post by Hitman »

So i was out on the SJ river fishing for Stripers this weekend and caught this. Never seen or caught a flounder in the delta before. I presume its rare but not out of the unusual to see/catch them in the delta? I know they're pretty prevalent in the Bay. what kind of flounder/sole is this?

Starry flounder. Probably up that far due to salt water entrusion. When I was a kid we caught a ton of them while sturgeon fishing.

Used to catch these off of the Rio Vista pier back in the late 70's. Always wondered why no one catches them now.. Must have been a drought back then.
