Last Flounder of 2010

January 16, 2011, 02:50 PM

Last gigging trip of the year near the channel and it was slow. Conditions couldn't have been better with calm wind and super-clear water. I could see the bottom 20' away in knee-deep water. One bed and one 17'er the whole evening. I did get some extra seafood while I was out so it wasn't too bad.

no crabs in the giant shells, they are snails, the meat is not bad, kinda chewy, good for gumbo and stuff

They were "lighting Welks" a marine snail that can be prepared like Conch.
