Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Hello!

I'm new to the group and new to fishing in Georgia.

Like many fishermen out there, I grew up (in KY) fishing for bluegill, shellcracker, warmouth...etc. and I've never lost my fondness for the little slabs!

I've recently started fishing again and would be very interested in any information on where to catch Bluegill et. al. in the Atlanta vicinity (within 50 miles or so).

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!!
