Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Hello everyone, I'm Michael H. and I've been lurking on here for a while and created my account today.  I'm 26 and this spring is my first time seriously fishing (fished before years ago, but wasn't doing any catching). 

I don't own a boat, so I've been stuck bank fishing with my ultralight rod, but the awesome thing is that I have river/reservoir right next to the road to and from work here in northern Virginia.  I have become addicted and fish for at least 10 or 15 minutes both to and from work......

Anyways, it'll be good to get to talk with ya'll.

Welcome aboard Michael. Sounds like you have a great place to fish that is very close to you. A lot of fish are caught from the banks. It still amazes me that bank fisherman want to fish out in the lake and boat fisherman want to fish near the bank!! LOL it all works.

Welcome Michael! Glad you made the transition from lurker to poster!

Welcome.
