Quick take
Seven-prong stainless steel gig harpoon that screws onto standard 8mm gig poles for spearing flounder and frogs.
This is a compact stainless steel gig head with seven prongs, made for gigging flounder, frogs and similar quarry in ponds, rivers and lakes. An 8mm screw thread lets you thread it onto a gig or gaff pole. At about 3.5 ounces it rides easily in a tackle box until you need it.
