PATTERN-RIGGING-PRESENTATION for Bluegill

55 members

Description

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.

    My rigs and gigs are simple, too...a variation of Huck Finn fishing efforts!

    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.

    It seems I have been given a small window of opportunity here… temps near 50 and a  slight breeze. I have to be totally honest here … I have never fished gills in cold open water… ive always in the past concentrated on the walleyes bass etc. this is when the biguns  are caught. To be this focused on gills and to follow this new founded addiction… I have you guys to thank for that… lol.. and thank you by the way!

                    So I havnt been on the water in awhile but I predict a pattern of fish on the deep weedy flats, lethargic but still hungry. Im going to start the day drifting slip bobbers with or without tandem rigs. Live wax worms and gulp or loaded in my car. So lets find out!

    Good fishing
