Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

i went fishing yesyerday at my favorite spot, which occassionally produces some MASSIVE gills. One came from the deeps onto my fly line, and boy did it put up a good fight. i pulled that baby in we think its a pure pumpkinseed. it was 10 inches and really heavy, we think at least a pound. so if anyone knows of a state record for Pumpkinseed in PA, please let me know. i will attach pictures.

 

also, if you think its not a pumpkinseed, let me know too.

 

Thanks,

Zack Thomasson
