- Please record the total number of fish you caught. However, record the length for only the first 20 summer flounder you catch. It is very important to record the lengths from the first 20 fish to the 1/4" (quarter of an inch), whether they are kept or released. Do not provide a range of sizes (ex. 5 fish 17 - 22 in).
