Do you all worry about the noise from a generator spooking the flounder?
Also do you just pole through the shallows or do you idle your motor and creep along the shoreline.
That's the way we gig suckers in Missouri we chase them with the boat and gig them as they are running?
That sounds more like a mullet method though.

| I have never worried about the noise from the generator spoking the flounder. My trolling motor has skimmed over them by 2-3 inches and they never moved. I have never left my outboard running while floundering, I polled for a while then got smart and bought a tm.

I have always run a tm, I used to run a 3600 watt Craftsman genny and never had a problem with spooking the fish.
