    Hey Bert, where can I get a good gig. Looking for something to use from a boat so needs to be longer than those Academy things. Do you use ones with barbs?

      Serious heads-up about boat gigs.
      Aluminum is good but Bamboo is far superior. Call Krestas Marine in Edna to see if the have any left.
      I was told I bought there last 2 bamboo gigs and they didn't know if they're old man was going to make any more.
      If you cannot find bamboo gigs then the best aluminums I think are made by a company called Sea Striker.

      Aluminum is strong and light but even aluminum gets heavy after working with one all night. Also, aluminum does not float and they do not bend. Aluminum is slippery and you will drop one eventually and if its in murky water...good luck

      Bamboo is extremly light, floats and is capable of bending far and springing back pefectly straight. Because of the wood surface and the rings along the length of the pole they are very grippy. Nothing is better than a bamboo pole for gigging. You just need to straight up trust me on this.

      A good 9 foot 3 pronged barbed Sea Striker is going to run you around $70 without shipping. A bamboo will cost around $60.
      Let me please know if you find a place that sells bamboo gigs. I am very happy with mine and would like to get some back-ups.
