      Roger Dickinson Zeke will not ship the 3/4 PVC Sch 40 pole due to shipping cost . He will sell you a coupler and dual lights for a reasonable price. He is out of Galveston , Tx . These are still the cheapest lights that work extremely well.

    A word to the wise: As an old gigger, I'll say this. Shuffle your feet. All. The. Time. You stepped on 2 flounder, they could have just as easily been stingarees buried in the sand. A friend of mine got hit 6 months ago. He is still in pain and sustained nerve damage, and still going to the doctor. Also, don't step backward. Stingarees will sometimes follow right behind you to eat stuff you've kicked up.

    Reminds me of gigging flounder in the Gulf when I was a teenager in Mississippi in the '60s. Back then our light was a pump-up gasoline type with the flimsy mantles. It was like a Coleman lantern, but instead of a globe it had sort of a metal dishpan on one side to reflect the light down. We always walked and used barbless gigs. When we stuck 'em we nailed them to the sand and reached down and picked them up to put them on a stringer. The most we ever got at one time was 18. Another time there was a "jubilee" when we picked up 33 in a half-hour. Good memories. Love watching your videos, and appreciate your Christian testimony.

    Awesome video, back in the 80s we would put in at the pines on ft Morgan road run down the bay, build a small shack on the beach and run out a 1000ft of 6 inch mesh gill net for flounder. October through November we would catch cooler after cooler full during the fall run and sell them to Foley fish market. Dad was the commercial fisherman and I was just a teenager. Seeing that stringer of flounder brought back some great memories

    Hey there BBB,
    Nice gigging video. I used to gig on the bay side of Galveston Island back in the 60s. We operated a little differently:) We actually wore jeans and old sneakers, for sure NOT bare foot. We also used kerosene lanterns for light:) It's really a of fun with a friend that knows the area.
    Just like robertintexas said stingrays were always present when we gigged so you learned very quickly to pay attention where you walked and what you gigged.
    Great video, looks like you guys had fun.
