Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Bruce Condello....Big Carp. Same initials. Coincidence? I THINK NOT! ;o)

Bruce, I saw your In-Fisherman 2008 Master Angler entry for a 40" Carp you caught last year. Congratulations!

I intentionally caught 9 or 10 carp on my fly rod last year. Biggest was 32", 16 lbs (estimated wt.). They are a LOT of fun when caught on flies!!

I got 2 white bass entries in the 2008 Master Angler awards.

Thanks! Here's a better image of that fish.

Wow, look at the belly on that fish!!
Man, thats an awesome fish! Congrats to Bruce and Dave on their big catches! Matt and I hope to go after carp soon as we have access to some private land to a Potomac tributary that has giants.

Check out our big blue cats from the James in the Master Angler listings...Matt's 49 incher was tops in Region 1 catch and release....cool!
Wow, Jim, that's great! Congratulations to you and Matt on your giant Blue Cats!!
Didnt your mother ever tell you it was rude to stick your tounge out at people! haha Nice fish Mr. Bruce
