article on the winter flouder population crash

[striprman]

I remember going to Duxbury around the first couple weeks in April,
in 3 hours fishing you could catch a couple 5 gallon buckets of flounder all about 14-16 inches. Made for some great fish fries.
Oh well, lucky to catch a spider crab there now that time of year. Still catch a few (a very few) and a couple'togs, during the last couple weeks of April, first couple of May.
