Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

7/18/15 Mayfly. I caught a mayfly earlier this week and threw it in the pond. When it quit moving (died) then the gills attacked it. I told myself 1st fly would tie would be a mayfly. Made it up this morning only 1 then went out and mowed. Guess what now it pouring cats and dogs I just can't win.

Thanks Mark. I did manage to get it on the water yesterday and caught a couple fish with it. I'll have to go back to the drawing board with it cause after about 10 minute or 2 fish it got water logged and started sinking.

Thanks Gerome that's the 1st thing I tied from my new work Station. Needs a lot of work but the basics are there.

I did manage a couple gills this evening with the mayfly so there will be more to come. I have some work to do to it cause after about 10 minutes it started to sink but for the first 10 minutes it rode the film like it was suppose to. I think when I get some CDC feathers that will help.
