| We started fishing right after dark and had them in the bag by about 1:45 AM. It was a little windy but nothing like they (weathermen/noaa) had predicted. Final tally 20 Flatties & 14 Mullet. Biggest flounder was 4.8 lbs and biggest mullet was also a little over 4 lbs. I also have a few of the kill shots mixed in this time that I have been promising for so long. 
 same fish as above

So Im new to this flounder gigging thing, Ive been out in the bay and the intercoastal the past two nights and havent seen one flounder... Where are they?Don't lose hope. If you keep at it you will eventually find them. You just have to think like a fish. Where would you like to lay on a given set of conditions to enable you to get the easiest meal possible? Variations in the make up of the bottom make a difference.

Such as the tidal movement, wind direction, water temperature, barometric pressure changes and a couple of other things that I still haven't been able to put my finger on that I am pretty sure play a role in there feeding activity. Its really not that different from the things that you look at before you decide to go with a hook & line. I just try to keep a consant vigil on things and when the stars line up I hit the road!!!
