For fluke , a lot of people use squid strips. Keep it moving a little or let it out into a current. Open the squid. Cut long triangles. Slit the long triangle tail down the middle so two thinner tails are wiggling. Under bridges is usually good if there is tidal movement. You usually need deeper water though. Like 30 to 60 feet range. When I used to dive , the flounder would scare the hell out of me cause they couldn't be seen till you touched them. They were in sandy areas in mid summer in about 35 feet of water. As far as your striper question on the other post goes , I think you need a new spot. In areas like you described , it is often nescessary to wade out waste deep so you can cast past the breaking stuff that is washing your lure or bait in. Sometimes its too rough to wade out. If you have thrown out mackeral chunks for years and had no luck , you need a new spot!
