Do you love big bluegill?
Finally, some action
Went to my friend's lake last Sunday the 16th on a whim, and came home with 11 nice gills with a total weight of a little over 9 pounds according to my Berkley scales. Had to cast from the bank as the water level was too low for me to drag his jon boat for a launch. I was throwing one of my hand-poured 1 inch black body chartreuse tail grubs and was getting hit on about every other cast. Sure felt good on that ultralite after a long hot summer. Nick

Nice account of the day. Sounds like fun - private ponds often have some of the best action.

I also love pond fishing. Sounds like some good weight on those gills.
