Bluegill Spawning
Do Bluegills spawn twice a year? If so, when is their second spawn, October?

I live in Central, PA. Maybe I'm thinking of the heavy feeding they do prior to winter, John.

Hey Bruce this is a good question........my OPINION for North Carolina is the May Full moon through the August Full moon with only a few stragglers in August.......for example ....I cleaned 60 gills this afternoon in the 5 to 7 inch class with over 40 hens and ZERO had eggs in them.......they were aggressive this weekend along with many other species joining in ......I normally see the feed bag being tied on September through November and the fish scatter for this event/period of time.........Thanks Jeffrey D.
