Only Bleeding Tail on a Gill Today….6/29/2024
"Hey Jeffrey, is what you call a shell cracker as sunfish up North?"
Do you love big bluegill?
Bluegills at Flipper's Bait Shop
These 80 Bluegills were caught on Old Hickory Lake in front of Flipper's Bait Shop. I caught these in 2 hours on a flyrod...I was using a chartruse #8 popper with a Ligon Bream Killer trailing about 18 inches. The popper floats and serves as a strike indicater and the bream killer sinks...they have a choice of a floater or a sinker...I catch most of them on the sinker.

Nice stringer!!!
I love a floater/sinker combo when fly fishing for bluegills. I've been using about a size 12 Deer Hair Caddis trout fly with a size 12 Scud in Olive or Orange about 9" below the DHC. It's been really effective lately.
