Salem Harbor Flounder

Went out Sunday 5/25/14 in the boat to Salem Harbor via the Danvers River for some flounder fishing.
Anchored off the main channel on the river side of the Beverly-Salem bridge. Outgoing tide 15 ft of water

Used chum pot with clams, squid, fish scales.
Fished with high/low flounder rig with 3 oz weight on a three-way swivel.

Caught 6 keepers which made a great dinner that night once the fillets were battered and fried.
