Flounder season opened back up here in Texas. Do y'all plan on going gigging for them or using a rod and reel? Thanks for watching!

[@brendamabry2542]

Seen a little 4 inch in Florida once and took me a minute to figure out what it was. It was floating on top of water.

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

@@brendamabry2542 the small ones can be transparent and they just blend in so well.

[@brendamabry2542]

I thought it was a leaf.@@MattsSaltwaterFishing

[@mikegilbertmetalartist9334]

Awesome job!

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Thank you!

[@RubenakaChupacabra]

Jack'em up. I'm waiting for the stuffed flounder dinner invite.

[@miguelvaldez6837]

Ruben , Chupacabra , one bad ass flounder ponder , gotta work on the hand to flounder, they keep getting away 😊

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Lol he should have practiced during the closure! /sarcasm

[@floridaflash]

Now that was some cool stuff! Never saw anyone gig flounder. Great job!

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Thanks for watching! Gigging can be fun and a good way to get some steps in whether you get some Flounder or not. lol

[@reelsimple6342]

Nice, I always wanted to try that!

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Thanks for watching! It can be fun, some nights you see a lot of them, some nights you see a few and other night it is like a ghost town.

[@redred3144]

It would be cool to see you catch some on rod and reel

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

We might hit up the secret spot for them either rod and reel, we have some videos of catching them if you wanna check some of them out.

[@LarryBoyfishing]

Nice flounder bro,im going to try to do that again, i spook a big 1 a wile back

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Thank you! Good luck out there, the Flounder were skittish the other day.

[@nmulligan1996]

this looks like packery channel, just too calm

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Sounds like you know your spots. Thanks for the sub!

[@JoeG2013]

Nice man! Gonna have to try out the secret spot. Hopefully i can stick my first flounder. What day did you go?

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Did you have any luck?

[@XanderHallsOutdoors]

What happens if you gig an undersized one? Since it’s probably dead then what do you do since you can’t throw it back?

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

If you are responsible you don't. 😂 if you aren't 100% positive that the Flounder is of legal size then don't gig it. We have seen a few Flounder before that have been previously gigged.

[@XanderHallsOutdoors]

Oh ok thanks

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

@HuntingWithTheHalls you're welcome. What some people do when starting out is, they will have their gig marked for the minimum length and put it up alongside the fish if the size is in question.
