Do you love big bluegill?

Growing up near the salt marsh in southern Louisiana this little species of shrimp was readily available everywhere….I would go to any standing water pockets and use a scoop net to quickly obtain several hundred grass shrimp for an outing…my trick was to use a one gallon old school ice cream bucket, fill half with salt water and drop in a large baggie of ice, this would rapidly cool the water down and in turn the shrimp would firm up and not turn to mush…put your jig under a float and add a shrimp to cover the hook and cast it to your desired location…hold on for intense strikes…
