Location

• Sebastian sits on the eastern coast of Florida south of Melbourne and north of Vero Beach. The Sebastian Inlet is a popular fishing area with several locations for catching flounder including a pier and jetty. The fee to enter Sebastian Inlet State Park ranges from $2.00 to $8.00 as of October 2010, depending on mode of transportation and number of occupants in a vehicle.
  
  

Procedure

• Flounder populate the Sebastian area in the fall and winter months. When fishing, use live shrimp or mullet as bait and keep it close to the water's floor, as this is where flounder look for food.
  
  

Requirement

• A fishing license is required in Florida. Prices vary with several factors including the buyer's age, residency and license duration. Fishing licenses are available for purchase online, at bait shops and at select sporting good stores.
  
  

Nutrition

• Flounder is high in Omega-3 fatty acids, according to the University of California Cooperative Extension. This helps prevent coronary disease, reduce stroke and lower blood pressure. Flounder is also low in mercury, an element that can harm children and fetuses.
