Having lived on or near brackish water 95% of my life, I was curious to learn how much salinity Bluegill could tolerate. Turns out they can handle a salinity level of 1.8 ........They have been caught in the Chesapeake Bay and I have also personally caught bluegill in my own crab pots in the Albemarle Sound.......a salt water inlet off the Atlantic Ocean.....
