Dauphin Island, AL I used to have a floundering boat set up but that was back in the days we used Propane lights Upgraded to electric lights with a generator for a couple of years before I moved away from the coast. I made fairly good money for a college kid gigging flounder.

so what do theyy do, come in shallow at night?

 

[BamaProud]

Yes, its typically a foot or two deep. They wait in ambush facing "up-tide" to catch baitfish being swept out of the shallows. This will be the first time I've ever used an LED light, I always ran propane lights which are obviously problematic if they get wet but wind is problematic as well. This light is made to be submerged. On a good night I used to gig 10-15, but have gigged over a hundred a few times.

I was born in Pascagoula and lived there until I was 13. Where are you down there? Dad and I used to go gigging back in a place called Bangs Bayou.

Cool! Only ever done this once and we gigged a lot of mullet for the smoker and a few flounder.

Looks like a lot of fun. Might be hard determining legal size though.

gigging report

We saw zero legal flounder, but we only tried about 2 hrs the first night when we saw tons of crabs. The second time we tried for about an hour it was a little rough and we brought a net for crabs, but didn't see any crabs or flounder. The light in amazing compared to what I used to use.
