Do you love big bluegill?

BLUEGILL RENDEVOUIS

Back in the old days the old mountain men would get together for a rendevous , Tootie and I were just wondering who would be interested and like to join us in early Sept on Reelfoot Lake in Tennessee for a Old fashion bluegill rendevouis . This wont be a fishing tournament but just a BBG get together for a good time catching fish, eating good,swapping flies and lies. Does this not sound like too much fun ! We arn't getting any younger, let us know what you think! LOFR

Dawn, decent weather, overcast - high 70's a break in the heat wave light winds. Everyone saying how tough the fishing is and snake watch has begun for me. Found out no venom but the fishing has been described as really tough here and the snakes go 300 mph like the Anaconda movie.
