Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

The Broken Bands on this big gill were eye catching....

Almost as long as a school ruler......but what a tall and chunky specimen this guy was....The Grass Shrimp was completely gone but no damage....big boy released to catch again!

Thanks Dick and Leo.....I'm also looking forward to covering that ruler up.....Work will be intense for several weeks but I'll get back on them ASAP.....

It'll be interesting to see  you get hammered by something that breaks the school ruler soon Jeffrey. You're getting closer and closer to that marker.

Thanks guys.....I really liked the pattern whether it was stress or not.....he fled the scene pretty fast once released!
