Flounder gigging is done at night, on the clear shallow flats, and can be gigged in anywhere from 2 inch to 4 feet of water.
Anyone can do it, and takes very little time to learn. Capt Mark will provide clear instructions on how to gig.
The beauty of marine life in the shallows come to life with the underwater flounder lights. The air motor is quiet and does not disturb them as the boat approaches, making it easy to view them in their habitat. Aside from flounder, it is also common to see Redfish, Stingrays, Blue Crab, Stone Crab, Speckled Trout, Mullet, Shrimp and many more.

Flounder gigging trips depart at sunset and may last approx 3-8 hrs, depending on fishing success. The limit is 5 flounder per person, with 14" minimum, and the guide cannot keep any fish. Black drum and Sheepshead are also legal to gig. Flounder gigging is closed for the month of November thru mid-December. During this time, we gig Sheepshead and Black Drum.
Bow-fishing can be accommodated, but please bring your own equipment if you want to bow-fish.
Capt Mark will contact you on exact meeting time & location the day prior to your guide trip.
Bay fishing trips depart at sunrise..... Rockport, Aransas Pass & Corpus Christi bay areas are perfect waters to fish year round for Redfish, Black Drum, Speckled Trout and Flounder. Live bait, wade fishing, drift fishing and sight casting will be used while targeting the shallow water species depending on weather and season.
Cleaning and bagging is included in trip price and is done after returing to dock.
