Cracker you may be able to in your area depending on visibility and type of bottom you're fishin' but over here I mostly hit bars and it's WAAYYY too fast for my taste cause you'll miss a chit pile of 'em. I generally use my gig as a push pole or troll if I can. Good luck! Stick'em!

Here's a video I made a few years ago when we were on them good. I use a bow mounted trolling motor when deep enough, otherwise I push with the gigs. We usually cruise shorelines near deeper water as flounder like to have a safe place not too far away to retreat to. But most fish are in water 2ft or less up where the baitfish like to be.
