The flounder is a very interesting flat fish that comes in two varieties, summer and winter. They are mostly found in the Northern Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. Flounder are unique in that they go through a process called metamorphosis, which allows them to evolve over time. Flounder vary a great deal in size, depending on where it is that you catch them. They are bottom feeding predators that reside in soft mud. They have been found at the deepest part of the Earth's Crust, the Mariana Trench
      Female flounder can produce as many as 4,200,000 eggs per season, and they begin to migrate in the fall for the purpose of spawning. They tend to spawn near in the waters near New York and New Jersey with some activity taking place in the waters of southern New England. When the weather is warmer, the flounder like to spend their time in inland waters. Young flounder feed on shrimp and other crustaceans, but the adult flounder eat a larger menu of fish. These fish can include smaller flounder, bluefish, weakfish, blue crabs, squid and sand shrimp.
