I think you should have called operation game thief. I keep them in my contacts and ive called them before
14’ Skiff-“Redfish Reaper”
Illegal to sell bang-stick kills (or possess them).
But, after seeing Sells flounder gigging post, I think commercial fishermen can probably sell gigged flounder. Paul, what say you?
I believe it’s legal. I’ve seen gigged flounder in probably ten different seafood places in SC…
If you have a commercial to sell permit from scdnr, any legal method of harvesting fish should be OK.
They are legal to sell if you have your permits. There is a “gig” endorsement on your commercial lic. It costs $10 extra to get.

Thanks for the info guys. I just didn’t know if it was legal or not.
