Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

I dropped off my daughter and her best friend at Wet' n Wild waterpark near Orlando at 2pm then I went to Bass Pro Shop. I stopped by a large fishtank and ..... two BIG coppernose Bluegills! WOW! Biggest is easy at 12 inch by about 8 inch! Second is about 11.5" by 7"!!!! Biggest is easy over 2 lbs! picture is not perfect because of diffcult to photograph on glass and fish move around alot! Anyone like you stop by in Orlando in Florida should check out Bass Pro Shop to see two beautiful BIGGGG Bluegills! Some tarpons swim in the tank, too! I dont know that Tarpons can live in freshwater? Some bass over 10 lbs in the tank! Best is that two BIG BLUEGILLS! I picked up two girls at 5 pm before big storm! I found out that tornado was just about 8 to 10 miles north of where I was! Whew!
