You're kidding, right? Flounder is one of the very best table fishes,
fried, baked, whatever. "Crispy," though, would be overdone for
flounder, in my opinion.

I have a friend in St. Augustine, FL, who gigs for flounder fairly
frequently inside Matanzas Inlet there. He's a giant guy, and looks like
Neptune with his three-tined fork. I tried it a couple of times, was
successful once.

I've only had flounder a few times. Always baked.
It is a mild fish, which I prefer.
Just never heard of fried flounder.
I don't care much for tricked out fish, like pompano baked with
almonds. My dad goes for that kind of thing.
By "crispy" I mean the breading, not the fish.
