Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

I watched 4 guys pile into a small jon boat yesterday and head out. The wind was blowing fiercely and it was cold... it had me ducking for a lee shore. These intrepid blokes didnt have 6" of gunwale showing, yet they were undeterred. Part of me was worried for them, the other half applauded their tenacity.

I hope things turned out well for them....

Might have been, Johnny!

Was it these guys?  Probably their cousins.

From what I cold see, John, the clowning was at a minimum. I suspect each was keenly aware of the precarious position they were in. That kinda puts a damper on things.

Hope they had their casting helmets on !...and protective goggles.Back casts can be nasty with 4 guys in a small boat .I imagine there was a lot of clowning around too!
