I’ve always thought this looked like a lot of fun and wonder if it’d work while flounder gigging...

Not sure what "Flounder gigging " is ..... but we have gone to Maryland and shot stingray with the bows

It’s when you take a boat with bright lights attached in or near the water out in shallow waters like the intracoastal waterway at night and gig flounder laying on the bottom of the waterway.

I assume it’s a regional thing since I grew up doing it and in retrospect I’ve never seen it talked about except locally.

Would like to try it .... I'm sure the bow would work too .

I really miss bowfishing. Spent a ton of time and money in my late teens and early 20's doing it. Biggest carp we ever got was 44 pounds and it was the first fish my buddy and I ever killed. We have two around that size in our fishing pond right now but they're safe.
 
40 plus fish today 3 guys ..... PRICELESS

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris

Hello:
I’ll take the .375 Whitworth for $1,150 if the deal falls through.
Thanks .
