"I particularly enjoyed the "fact" that one must first allow bluegill to air-dry before cleaning so they're not as slippery.  Not the best advice if one prefers one's fish to be fresh..."

Yeah......fish jerky!!

[David, aka, "McScruff"]

Certainly not "correct," it had an interesting mix of folklore, fact, and plain goofiness. Like Walt, I got a kick out of the "air dry" method.

Yes, there were more than a couple of "eyebrow raisers" in that quiz!! lol...............

yep walt.it is regionally biased.but hey maybe it will get some people more interested in fishing,

I would respectfully submit that the author of that quiz should learn a little more about bluegill before writing a quiz that purports to be authoritative on the fish..."Bluegill" is not a family, but rather a single species within the sunfish family; likewise, "perch" is a nickname for bluegill in Texas, but is not a proper, i.e. official, term for the fish; etc.
