Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Was able to take a Friday off of work and what better way to spend it than on the water.  Temps have been in the low fifties at nights with daytime highs in the low eighties so water temps have dropped some making the urge to wet a fly strong.  Tied up some bead eyed dragon fly nymphs in this color pattern to see how they would work.And after a few gills approved of them the cats took a liking to them.Know there's several versions and names for this pattern but as far as I'm concerned I'm calling it the Cat's Meow!!
