Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

its been a while, good to be back on the big gills!
Here is a report from my blogspot...

CK got me hooked up with Boone and we headed up with his boat for some great panfish action!
They started slow, we would find some but when we stopped to fish them they would disappear, skittish i guess.
I rigged up a slider float at around 22 ft in 25 ft of water to get out away from the boat and cover more water. Not much at first, but in a while i started nailing them.
Soon we were all getting lots of fish out from the boat.
Later they started getting less boat shy and we were able to verticle jig them watching them come up and take our baits on the flasher.
CK and Boone got all their fish with the jig, I tried many different lures, settling on a Lindy fatboy with 2 waxworms for most of my fish. I also took some on a Lindy flyer spoon packed with waxworms.
I had a great time, will have to do it again with you, thanks!

Great job, guys. You all sure did get some impressive fish! Way to go!
Those are some fantastic looking fish! Way to go!
Nice fish. You look cold.

Guess that's why the fish were so deep.
