_My_ boat has a gig from time to time, for elegant transfer of
the captain from yacht to shore and back. You and Snotty, it

Clearly, we've tripped over different English dialects. Gigging
frogs? Nope. Gigging pubs, yes. And I know about pithing toads,

it's not a lisped description of his usual excretory functions.
So you sneal up and pith on toads?
