This video shows how well Flounder are camouflaged, in this case laying on oyster shell island, and the challenge of being able to see them.

Flounder both gather or lay individually in the shallows to feed. One side (the white side) of the Flounder is stark white and faces the sea floor bottom. The other side, is camouflaged to avoid detection from prey and both eyes are found on this side. TEXT us at 904-556-0230 or Email us at: floundergigging@gmail.com.
Oyster shell beds (see previous video), Sandbars, along the edge of the Marsh Grass. They will lay along the edge of the water only 1" deep or they will lay in up to 3' of water.
Capt Mac knows where and how to find them!

1. Your charter group will be your group only,
2. We include your salt-water fishing license,
3. Our Sunset Charter departs at Sunset,
4. All your fishing equipment is included,
5. Children are always welcome and we provide all life vests,
6. Besides Flounder you can also gig Sheepshead, Black Drum, Mullet & Whiting. You can also net Red Drum (Redfish), Speckled Trout and Blue Crabs.
7. Since we don't use bait we don't waste valuable fishing time trying to find bait,
8. We fish under the stars and Moon light so there are no harmful ultraviolet rays of the Sun to be concerned about (no messy sunscreen needed),
9. There is no long, bouncy boat ride over off-shore waves to eat into your fishing time (we fish only in the smooth inland waters),
10. Sea sickness is never an issue because we are always in the back water and only a few feet from land (most of your fishing is done only a few feet from land in a very safe 4" to 12" of water as skim the mud flats, sandbars, oyster shell beds and marsh grass areas looking for Flounder, Sheepshead, etc),
11. Our completely enclosed full cabin gives maximum protection from the elements - no open-boat, windy boat rides!|
12. There is plenty of comfortable seating for eveyone,
13. Capt Mac gives you a brief Flounder 101 course so that you can use proven techniques to harvest the Fish,
14. Our Adventures are very visual both below and above the water line. On the shoreline, we typically see Spoonbills (birds), Great Herons, Pelicans, Ducks, Sea gulls, Manatees, Raccoons, Opossums & sometimes Peregrine Falcons.
15. So get ready to have lots of fun!

First time ever flounder gigging. Great adventure. We will do this again. Perfect time of year in January, 2022 Captain Mac was great. He put us on lots of big Flounder and Blue Crabs.

5-Star Review
Amazing trip on the flounder barge! Capt. Mac was very informative on teaching us the habitat and behavior of flounder as well as the techniques to best spot them laying on the camouflaged bottom. We gigged plenty of flounder for dinner, as well got a tour of the inland marsh. We seen horseshoe crabs, sea turtles, dolphins, starfish, blue crabs, redfish, as well as many many more marine life. Capt. Mac brought us across several types of bottom terrains, from oyster beds, to sticky mud flats and even sandy bottoms to locate these fish. The boat was very comfortable for the 5 of us, and the amazingly quiet fan engine helped us scoot across the shallow waters without creating a huge mud cloud as you would with a normal propeller. We’ve already got more groups wanting to plan additional trips. I highly recommend booking through Capt Mac on the Flounder Barge. Can’t wait til we go again!
We have been exclusively Flounder Gigging for over 20 years!

Check out this great flounder gigging video that these college students made up right after they gigged a nice doormat (aka huge) Flounder!
Text us or at 904-556-0230 (or Email us at: floundergigging@gmail.com).
While looking for Flounder you will see lots of Blue Crabs along the way. Scoop them up with our special long-handled Blue Crab nets. Between gigging all the fish and scooping up the Blue Crabs you will stay busy!
PS - Ask about our famous Recipe which is Baked Flounder stuffed with fresh Florida Blue Crab. Delicious!
