I caught these this past spring using 1/32 and 1/64 oz. jig heads. Typically a glow with a red eye, or just a hot pink colored head. I would tip it with either worm or those small gulp alive minnows that are 1 inch long. I like using 4lb test on my 7 foot ultra-light rod to "dipstick" these suckers out of docks and other areas. They were definitely angry and these weren't the biggest ones either. I put those back. We can get plenty of the 7-8 inchers... :-)

If bluegill played football that dude would be an offensive lineman. Stout!
