Pop a gill means to cut or break it to allow the blood to flow out. Finger, knife or pliers should accomplish the job. Halibut will stay alive bleeding for a long time so you can leave them on your game clip for most the day. On a sunny warm day, I would not want to leave them in the hatch more than a couple of hours unless insulated. The chefs here could probably tell you better though.
