Here Captain Mac is pictured at only 10 years old with his very first Flounder. This picture was taken by his Mom right before they prepared the Flounder with stuffed crab meat and his Family all enjoyed a wonderful dinner! Captain Mac grew up right on the beach Amelia Island and started off Flounder Gigging by wading in the water with a gig and a Coleman Lantern for light as he learned all about Flounder Gigging from an early age.

Do Flounder Gather or are they Individual to Feed?
A Gathering of Flounder
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.
Where are Flounder found?
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!

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),

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!
