Flounder fishing in southern NJ

[Looking]

I've been fishing here in the Greater Wildwoods area for the past 60 years and have NEVER seen it so bad with regards to flounder fishing. I look out at the Delaware bay each day and see absolutely NO boats day in and day out a true indication that the bay is suffering. I talk with many other back bay boaters and it's the same story from here to Tom's River --where are the flounder??? I KNOW that the flounder fishing up near Sandy hook is GREAT and like what it used to be down here. IS there a problem or is it a figment of my imagination???

Definately a problem.i think a combination of things and maybe the waters are warming too much. loo how warm the ocean is this year.most all locals agree kthe bay is in bad shape. The whole planet seems in trouble.
