[creekrocket]

Have any of yall read the article about the guy getting busted gigging the bass in the new GON issue? I was wondering if it was anywhere on the enternet? Thanks

Where did it happen? Was it in Camden county?

 

[skiff23]

I read it. It was down near St Mary's. He had already been caught and convicted in FLA . It was one the law should have made a bigger example of.

What month was it in?

what I want to know is how he got that close to that many redfish with a 10' gig!

 

[skiff23]

Last Month . Evedently he was good at it because he had been caught in Fla and was selling the fish.

Redfish are very easy to gig. They arent hard to see and they arent real shy at night. I have seen them while flounder gigging. You can reach down with the gig and push them out of the way. Its very tempting.

Ditto. K Dawg. They just sit there. You sometimes have to tap them to make them move.

 

[Ga Waters]

thanks. I did not know that. Only been flounder giging once or twice.

 

[G Duck]

Sheephead also,are about as tame as redfish under the light.

 

[creekrocket]

Its getting about that time G Duck...

 

[G Duck]

Yep, but Im waiting to get after the TTail. Have to come back and give it another try.

So how about a gigging thread?

 

[G Duck]

thanks. I did not know that. Only been flounder giging once or twice.

You ought to go more, you live in one of the best areas!

they caught a guy shooting bass on the bed at night with a bow in pickensville al a few years back. should be a hanging offense

 

[creekrocket]

Here are a couple from last year...

I finally got to read the article last night. This guy had something like 56 redfish in his boat. He told the officers that the fines in GA arent that bad and it was worth the risk. The judge said "Oh really? We'll see about that."

Yeah,I wonder why we catch so much flack for gigging???
