Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

I just purchased a book called "Secrets to Catching More and Bigger Blue Gill" by Ryan McCaw and can't wait to dive into the 133 pages of knowledge this man has. But it got me thinking, is there any more books out there like this?  I've got the greatest resource of all to find out and that's from all my friends on bigbluegill.com.  So if you have come across a good blue gill book please share it with us so we can get our dirty blugillin paws on it! :)  I'll start....

I found it through the authors web site www.bluegillworld.com (which has a lot of good blue gill info)  He has a link in there that you can click on to make the purchase......Buy the book and support a fellow Blue Giller!  

.....As kind of a side thought, I looked on our site to see if the author, Mr McCaw, was a member of our Blue Gill community and couldn't find him...Bruce, if there was a way to contact this guy and if he was willing, he could be a great addition to our Gill family....

Any you are willing to share?

Nobody has any Blue Gill books they would be willing to share? Are they that rare? ........Anyone?

check out Bluegill flyfishing and flies by terry and roxane wilson. You can get it on amazon for like $10. Pretty good book

Not Bluegill specific but some good books;

Panfish, USA - Nick Sisley - Winchester Press

The Sunfishes, Jack Ellis - Abenaki Publishers Inc.

Panfishing, F. Philip Rice - Outdoor Life Books

Good Stuff Guys, Thanks!  I'll look into them and hopefully others who see this post will too. I'm hoping to get a little Gill library going....:)
