Plaice tend to be a lighter colour than flounders, and their fins more rounded. You will get flounders with some orange spots just to confuse matters further
    thanks for that solves everything!

      Good advice there mate, but it should be "run your finger from tail to head" - all flatties will feel smooth stroked from head to tail, but stroke the other way and a dab feels like sandpaper.
