Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

I must say that I am delighted and thrilled to be a part of Bass Pro Shops 2014 Spring Fishing Classic by putting on a panfishing seminar on March 1, 2014 at the Arrundel Mills Mall Bass Pro Shops. I know that maybe only a handful of BBG members are within driving distance of this event, but it would be cool to meet a few of you and talk fishin'!

On behalf of all panfish enthusiasts.....thanks for donating your time and knowledge Jim........I'm sure some of the folks will look back on that day and share it with somebody they know.....Would have enjoyed being there myself for sure........

Well done Jim!!!!!

Congrats Jim!!! Your great fisherman but an even GREATER GUY!  Oh and don't worry I am still waiting for a response from Johnny Morris about that false advertisement thing! LOL  1:30???? Man they had that time listed every where Friday night!

Wow sounded great JIm! I was half way there, took the wife to Williamsburg for the weekend to celebrate 41 years. Dangled the bait in front of her but she wouldn't bite.  I should have researched if there were any outlet malls near the BPS that would have pushed her over the edge. LOL!

 I sure wish I could have been there...............Well Done................Don in SC

Thanks everybody! It was a great time and we made some new friends and learned a lot from others as well!

I got a chance to go to Jim's talk at Bass Pro last weekend. It was absolutely fantastic I learned more in one hour listening to Jim speak then I have learned in the last year trolling the internet and reading articles. I also had the opportunity to meet and speak with Jim after his talk. Thank you Jim for taking time out of your schedule to share your knowledge it was greatly appreciated.   

Glad you got to get out there Brent......Jim is a wealth of knowledge and has a willingness to teach......a rare combination.......I had the pleasure of hosting Jim to a weekend fishing trip last October in which we had a great time wetting a line in pretty tough conditions .....one of the best parts was all the testimony and panfish talk....we're working on a warm weather trip this year and I can't wait!

Thanks, Brent...I appreciate the kind words, and let's make sure we pond-hop one day this spring!

Jim you have no clue how mad I am for not knowing about this!  Congrats though, how did the seminar go?

  Anything like that happening for Nashville, TN area?
