Do you love big bluegill?

36 RBS , 1 P seed Wanaque River Started with a Hendrix "Rascal" on the Flyrod ;immediate hits but no takes. Tipping the "rascal" with small piece of worm got 4 Red Breasted Sunfish. Switched to spinning rod 2# test line and a 32nd Chartreuse Jig I tied /tipped with Twister Tail ,The bait got down to the fish quicker in the shallow pools and caught 7 RBS in short order . Switched to an untipped beaded beige nymph my brother tied; threw it with the flyrod ,nothing . Switched to spinning rod and scaled down to a 64th oz feather black head jig I tied. This was killer and caught 25 RBS and one Pseed without being tipped . Very low water conditions and stained. A fine 90 minutes of wading/fishing from stream rocks .Great way to bring in October! A size 10 or 8 hook is perfect for these little beauties!

I don't think so Dick. Pure RBS is what I'm figuring .

I'm thinking there is some green sunfish mixed in there.
