Looking for a good, quality made flounder gig, preferably w/ a 10ft carbon fiber pile. Has anyone come across such an animal! My google searching doesn’t seem to bring the results I am looking for. New or used. TIA!!
One Simple Thanks!!

I got a screw on gig head from sea striker that is stainless and screws into a female receiving end. Normally $60 but west marine in mtp had a basket of them for half off. Haven’t gotten to use it yet but it seems really sturdy. I have a adapter that allows me to put it on my push pole but I believe sea striker sells aluminum poles.
Note: if you want to be a real “sportsman” you will gig with the suction cup catch and release method
17’ Mako //90hp Mercury
16’ Alumacraft // 20hp Yamaha
14’ War Eagle // 9.8hp Tohatsu
I filet and release in grease!! Let me know how that suction cup method works out for you!! lol. On a side note, I only stick as many as I plan to eat, I don’t go all the time and fill my freezer and never eat them like some do.
One Simple Thanks!!

Pit, if you really want carbon fiber, get ahold of Phin (Marsh Tacky Carbon).

Thank-you for all of the replies. I contacted Mr. Keller yesterday evening and spoke to him. Meeting him today to pick up a couple heads. Now to figure out the pole situation.

Yes Sir, that was me. Pleasure meeting you!! I ended up taking your advise and using a wood closet rod. They came out nice and have a good feel to them. Ready to hit the water now!!
