Pretty sure years ago the DWF banned gigs for taking frogs and you could only use the pincher type catcher.
My brother-in-law would head out to N.O. East in the Bayou Savauge and along Hwy. 11 to hand grab frogs and come home with tons of them every time he went.

Bull frogs: 5 inches minimum length
Pig frogs: 3 inches minimum length

I know it is legal now to use gigs, but I do believe at one time, maybe back in the late 60's or in the 70's, gigs were banned for a time if my memory serves me right.
