This Fluke Is Really A Fluke

Fluke are supposed to be left handed flounder. Dark side , eyes on left side with jaw straight down. This one didn't get the memo.

Chemicals in the Jersey water.

So.....

According to this.....the white side is the right side....

So, the eyes are both on the left side.....just different in relation to mouth??!!
