Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

On Friday I hit my favorite bluegill fishing ground that is loaded with largemouths too.

 

The bass action wasn't too good but I was into the bulls.

 

I covered a good area of most of the ponds on the land. Saw a few schools of bullgills piled up in some areas.

 

I played with a size 7 rainbow trout Rapala Original Floater and used it as a topwater by giving it a jerk before letting it rise back to the surface and jerking again.

 

Caught 6 bass but went over 10 with bluegills up to 9" and pretty fat. Also caught 2 small, very colorful pumpkinseeds.

 

The bulls were hitting the lure like a bass and fought like a 2 pound bass. All bluegills at these ponds fight hard for their size.

 

Sorry I don't have any pictures of these bulls.
