Hi Peter,

Welcome to the site. I am new here, too.
What a pretty bluegill on your picture!
I also live in Socal and where do you normally go for bulegill fishing? The lake on the picture looks pretty.

Hi James
the lake on the picture is Puddingstone. Its one of very few lakes that lets me bring
my float tube.The bluegill is from Castaic lagoon, where the bluegills are VERY nice
looking.

Hey pete! Welcome to BB

Im new to the site and a So Cal boy too! I fished perris about 8yrs back pretty regular and caught some large bluegill, but lately I come up short. Im willin to travel a bit for a good bite...got any suggestions?
Castaic lagoon can be very good sometimes, if you can get ON THE WATER.
Float tube works very well. Do you have some kinda way of getting on the water?

Peter
