Gigging for Frogs

Gigging for frogs can be a fun and rewarding way to spend an evening. Additionally, it can be a great way to bring home some delicious frog legs for a tasty meal. Here are the steps for how to gig for frogs.

Instructions

  1. Get the Necessary Supplies: First, you will need to make sure that you get the necessary supplies for gigging. This typically involves a gig – a long pole with metal, barbed tines on the end. A flashlight, hip boots and a bucket or cooler are also recommended.
  2. Set Up in the Right Spot: The next important step is to scout out the right spot. Frogs like to hang out near bodies of water, so you should look for spots that have wetlands or slow-flowing streams.
  3. Use a Flashlight: Once you have set up in the right spot, use your flashlight to search for frog eyes reflecting in the night.
  4. Gig the Frogs: Once you have spotted the frog, use the gig to impale the frog. You should hold the pole just above the water’s surface.
  5. Collect the Frogs: Once you have impaled the frog, you can use the gig to scoop up the frog and place it into the bucket or cooler that you brought along to store the frogs.

Tips

  • Gigging for frogs is best done in the early spring when the frogs are most active.
  • Bring along a friend – it’s always more fun with a buddy!
  • Do not over-gig the water. This can cause a decline in the local frog population.
  • You should always release the frog that you do not plan to eat.

Gigging for frogs is a great way to experience nature and to bring some delicious frogs legs into your kitchen. With the right supplies and know-how, you’ll be gigging with the best of them in no time.
