When to fish european flounder in Denmark

• Spring 5–25 ft — Drift or hold bait tight to sand and mud beside a channel; bites are often only extra weight.
• Summer 6–35 ft — Cover broad sand transitions slowly with a bottom rig, especially where a light current crosses the flat.
• Fall 8–40 ft — Work deeper harbor approaches and channel edges as the nearshore water cools.
• Winter 15–50 ft — Most fish hold deeper; present a compact bait slowly on the bottom and expect a sparse bite.
