"Oh, good for you, Bruce. More satisfying!"
Do you love big bluegill?
New Guy
I live in Kansas City Area of Mo. Have been fishing for gills as long as I can remember. I must have used over 10k crickets and worms in that time. Started tying jigs at a young age and gave it up for a decade or so. Started back last year found this site while searching for techniques on how to catch big gills. I am now on a quest to break the 1lb mark. A lot of fertile resevoirs close to me that are no longer "new" lakes. As far as I know besides a few folks bluegill are not even chased on the lakes except for using them as catfish bait.
Here are some jigs and spoons I have been working on.
