Thank you for joining, Zig.

This is turning out to be a pretty cool place. I'll never make money off of it, but I might make some friends. :-)

hey Zig just found this website today-had to sign right up. im really enjoying it already

You bet Zig!

Hi Ya Zig
Thought I had this site to my self, but see some of the boys are making the jump.
Glad ya made it over. Love to read your posts, very informative.

Yoh Zig, I'm sorry I didn't post a picture of my biggest Bluegill but I can't find It so i put up some Crappie.
I actually do too much Bass fishing but decided to spend more time on Crappie, Bluegill, and Pike now that I've aged a bit. Our fishing declined here for quite a while as everything was about the Salmon fishery. Hopefully now that that has declined they will concentrate on bring back the panfish. Thanks for writing back. Thanks Don Hartman

I promise to put up some bluegill pictures as soon as possible.
Thanks Don Hartman

Agreed Zig - interesting that when I tip fly rod crickets or woolly buggers with powerbait wrigglers, the rock bass are steady customers. Other soft plastic tipping baits - like Exude in the micro grub or the new waxies, seem to appeal to the crappies, bluegills and perch better. ( a purple micro Exude grub - abaout a half inch long, was attacked by one of the largest bass I've ever gotten close to the boat - 2 lb test gave way - but man my heart was a 'thumpin ! )

ha,rods are always in the truck and always ready to take a trip...it's been a while since I have been able to leave, but am gearing up for some ice fishing. 2 months until the ice thaws!!!!

Zig, thanks for the welcom. Welcome back. Where do you live in Pa. I am about 1 hour north of Pittsburgh not to far off of I 79.

Wild Cherry Bluegill photos posted today... other photos of one of my Dad and my fishing excursions.

Great Photos Zig,Thanks...The ol' fish eye trick huh!Works for me. Never caught a bluegill on a perch eye tipped spoon or jig...just perch and crappie

Strange indeed!I've caught carp scales the size of dimes casting for trout,but I'll let you know when I catch a one eyed fish on a perch eye!

I actualy live in Lutherville MD but my pond is in Boiling Springs Make it up to my property about every other week
