The idea definitely has merit tho just need to get some smaller versions of those fly type things the Americans use for "fluke" fishing I recon and clear enough water for them to see them in.
If Im not gonna catch enough to feed the neighborhood it needs to be fun to warrent the effort.

Cool. In the US, they use soft baits or small bucktails bounced off the bottom. In the UK, it's bait fishing with marine worms. Either way, I think light, sensitive gear with small hooks is the way to go.

Bucktails! Yea thats the word.
Them but smaller would be the go I recon, I was trying the softbaits with 8p braid and 10p fluorocarbon which is plenty light to be dragging over cockels, Pacific Oysters,engine blocks, wheels etc I recon
As I said I was getting hits but our flounder have very small mouths compared to their Fluke so smaller terminal tackle required I think.
