Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Garden planted --- now time for some serious crabbing & panfishing

   

     Garden all planted and now it's time for some serious bluegill / panfish fishing.  

     

    In my raised beds 

    -----> 18  tomato  (8 creole / 6 celebrity / 4 sweet 100 cherry) 
    -----> 20  squash  (golden egg hybrid) 
    -----> 25  cucumber  (dasher 2) 
    -----> 15  bell pepper  (camelot) 
    -----> 32  okra  (clemson spineless) 
                                     
     In hills back corner by fence 
    -----> 20  cantaloupe  (hearts of gold)  
    -----> 20  pumpkin  (cushaw green stripe crook neck)   
                                    
    I usually wait till end of April for okra -- but seems warmer this year.  
    And I just wanted to have everything planted for April 1st  
                           

    Also planted 30 blackberry plants (prime ark freedom blackberry) 

    Crabbing still about 2 weeks away but I'm all caught up on to do list.  

    Need to get away from the house and spend time on the water now.  

    And my compost pile is full of big fat earthworms ---- bluegills here I come.     

    4 / 2 / 2015  just want to add ------>  I'm  from  southeast  Louisiana

Sounds like a lot of 'putting-up' comin. "A country boy can survive."

32 okra plants !!!

I was born near the Texas/Louisiana border. Okra is the staple vegetable there. The rest of that garden is just for 'looks'. Ahahahaha

Well, I got 3-Nice Rows of Tatars 1-Long Row of Onion and yesterday put out Squash and Cucumbers and sunflower seeded----Next week will start search for a wall hanger Warmouth---Stay Tuned

My wife's granddad use to bury his fish heads and guts in the garden for fertilizer.  LOFR
