Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

I realize this may have been covered before now, and I’ve missed it. So bear with me...

 

But I've been wondering how much time the members of BBG actually spend fishing.

Myself, for example, I make time to go at least once a week. I’ll go more if the opportunity presents itself.

Others may be retired - or independently wealthy - and may go everyday, anyday.

Still others may be more interested in going fishing than actually making the time to go.

For each of us, it is somewhere within this range.

 

So what is it for you?

I'm the same way.  I generally go about once a week, maybe week and a half.  But would definitely go more often if time allowed.
I also will try at least once a week, but the voices in my head say to go more often..LOL

I will go at least once a week 12 months a year but sometimes only for a few hours.

This year has been very very slow so far. I have gone here and there, nothing consistently. But I hope this weekend I will make a good 2 day trip to my secret honey hole. So keep your fingers crossed for me and I'll have a post on monday.
It is not the old days, I only get to go 3 or 4 times a week!!!!!!!! But am hoping things will free up and I can go more!!!!
the last time i went was last tuesday lol i dont have anyone to drop me off to a fishin spot or go pond hoppin.
I fish about 5 times a week, but only a few hours each time.

@ Vic - voices in your head? Must be the same ones in mine....

 

By nature, I'm a "fish more often, for less time" fisherman. I like frequency. I don't want to drive 50 miles to fish all day, once a month. I prefer 20 minutes getting there and 3 hours worth, more often.

Sadly, the number of sites nearby are few where I currently live. SO I have to make the best of them.

It varies, I mite go 2 or 3 days this week then not get the chance for a month, maybe I need to try harder.
I fish three to five times each week.
Rather strange but in the open water season, usually once or twice a week. Ice fishing, probably average at least 3, some stretches it's daily. So many things to do when it's warm, think the fish taste a bit better on ice
3-4 times a week......I have a thing for fresh fish.
