All we did was gut it, remove the head, and bake it. It came out so delicious.

The skin peeled right off and you could scrape the meat off the bone with just a spoon.

Went fishing with some adults when I was a kid. My uncle caught a flounder(this was fresh water), it was was fairly big. But no one in our group had ever seen a flounder before and they are a very strange looking fish. No one wanted to even touch it. So he ended up cutting his line and let it swim away. lol

Flounder look weird for sure, but man, they taste soooooo good. The water is technically brackish, but I had caught a small redfish just after him which makes me think this was a saltwater flounder.

I absolutely love redfish, but this one was so small that it hadn't turned red yet and at first, I thought it might have been a croaker. But once I saw the signature dot on its tail I was like "oh man, this is just a small redfish".

His flounder was the only one we kept that day. It was at about 10", which is good enough to cook.

My son's a "boy's boy" which makes it so much easier for me. Anytime I want my fish cleaned/fileted or animals cleaned, he always volunteers to do it for me.

And by "volunteers", I mean that I say "hey boy, go clean that" and he says "yes sir"
