Thanks for the warm welcome. I appreciate it. I'll PM Feral One.
Can you really take Flounder with archery equipment? How about in GA or Florida?

Believe it or not I am still unsure about the laws for bowfishing saltwater in GA, but have shot flounder in FL, MS, AL and LA, in fact we have alot of good eating fish you can shoot down there.

You ain't the only one Mark we spent 2 days on the phone with DNR and Fisheries and the final answer we got was "Well i don't see anywhere that it say's you can't" LOL it is kind of crazy to think that nobody knows but we spoke with everyone all the way to the top.
Those flounder were shot in SC and it is legal we also have shot Reds up there but you have to becareful because SC has a slot limit.

Is it legal to "gig" flounder in Georgia? If it is legal to gig them then there shouldn't be a problem with "gigging" them with a barbed arrow... right?

I would think so, but there is nothing in the regulations about anything in saltwater and bowfishing, just about shooting non-game fish in freshwater, but what is considered a game fish in saltwater??? It can be very confusing and when you ask the DNR they do not know as well!
