Do you love big bluegill?

This guy went around the boat several times before I could negotiate his surrender.....Only problem fishing with the smaller jigs...this fish was throat hooked and bleeding pretty good after the long fight.......The dart jig is a 1/64 to 1/100 ounce...

I was actually trying out some very small indicators that I had ordered just for the dart jigs and the test worked out even better than I would have hoped.......The fish were just hitting so hard.....I caught six on the dart and the jig was completely inside the mouth on all six....Half were at risk if released so I kept them......

That's definitely an issue with the small jigs. I find myself hesitating to use them quite often, in spite of the fact that they work so well. I fish C+R so much that I hate to take the chance on mortally wounding a fish if I'm not going to keep it. They just slam it and swallow in a heartbeat.
