I dunno from sexing them, but they like to pee directly into my tackle bag.<br />

Moreover, only the females will spike you. As Poor Richard says, "It is wise to watch out for those spiny rays, for they may stab you even as you try to remove the hook."

Yer, Lordship. I believe that tornados and hurricanes spin counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemisphere. It is called the Coriolis Force. It works on large weather patterns but not on sink drains. That is determined by the geometry of the container and the original motion of the water. I have not paid attention to which way a big bluegill turns circles <u>but now I will</u>. It probably is like a sink drain though. Which way is the LOFR leading the gill…

<br />
Now that I am paying attention again, I recall that you have trouble getting your <u>big</u> hand OUT of a cricket can with a cricket in it. I am asking you to start paying attention to how much you have had to drink before entering the cricket can. Perhaps you are puffed up, like the water swigging gills peeing on the boogieman. I wonder does the puffing up make you more handsome! NAH! That is determined by the geometry of the container and the direction of the drinking mind.<br />
<br />
Now answer the original question. Have you ever been peed on by a female bluegill? If you don't know, make it a point to notice and report back here. I will.

Breeding male bluegill often swallow extra water to try to make themselves look like bigbluegill to attract a mate, this is a genetic predisposition, the bigger the gill ,the more handsome. When they puff up and equalize the water pressure in their bodies when underwater they have pulled the hammer back and they are primed ready to pee, next when they are caught and lifted out of the water this disturbes the balance between lack of water pressure on the outside of their bodies and the extra…
Breeding male bluegill often swallow extra water to try to make themselves look like bigbluegill to attract a mate, this is a genetic predisposition, the bigger the gill ,the more handsome. When they puff up and equalize the water pressure in their bodies when underwater they have pulled the hammer back and they are primed ready to pee, next when they are caught and lifted out of the water this disturbes the balance between lack of water pressure on the outside of their bodies and the extra water pressure on the inside of their bodies thus pulling the trigger and peeing on Boogieman. I have also noticed in my research that when I set the hook on Big Bluegill that they tend to make circles in the water counterclockwise, could this be because we are in Northern Hemisphere, so in the Southern Hemisphere would they circle clockwise when fighting aginst the pull of the line?

IF peeing by gills is a "guy" thing, that brings up another question. I don't know much but I have seen some things on here that make sense. Males <u>supposedly</u> spend so much potential growth energy in the spawning process that they effectively stop growing much once they start. A small spawning male <u>ma</u>y grow up to be a runt. <u>Maybe</u> they can turn the urge off if they are stuck with no girls around. <u>Maybe</u> they only pee on you when spawning.

Honestly, I don't know the answer to this question. I always just <i>assumed</i> that it was the males doing the pee-ing, but I'm not sure. Perhaps we can start a <a href="http://www.pondboss.com" target="_blank">www.pondboss.com</a> conversation and coax Mr. Cody into an answer on there.
