PATTERN-RIGGING-PRESENTATION for Bluegill

Information

So you had a great day on the water… you caught many gills or sunfish and you had a specific rigging and a presentation you made to nail em. You are one proud angler! Share that information with us. Describe the conditions the rod, reel and line and how you presented the bait to them. Start a discussion and post pictures of the event. We are interested and that’s why we are here. No rigging is to simple or complex. Some days simpler is better. We are all varied in our skills as bluegill fisherman from the novice to the masters. Even if it’s just sharing your favorite rod, reel and line combination… anglers ask for this information all the time! We could all learn something new.

Comment by Allen Morgan on November 5, 2014 at 8:11pm: One thing I do, when rigging a slip-float. I put a bead on the mainline above and BELOW the float. The bead above the float is standard, it keeps the stop-knot from going through the float. The bottom bead is to keep my swivel (I always like a swivel on the line, with rare exceptions) from jamming up into the bottom of the float.
