Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Hey folks, Went out Tuesday morning with a friend of mine up to the private lake. caught a total of 9 seven to nine inch combination of gills and shellcracker in about 4 hours. The water is down over a foot, and it is hot here in Ga. Feel like we were lucky to catch what we did. Might take the rest of this month off and make some more plastics for the fall and winter crappie season. Sure am looking forward to cooler and a little more wet weather so the lakes can get back to pool. We used everything from live bait to small jigs and flies. Well, better luck next time. The rest of you keep the good reports coming in. Anyone have any new videos out? Take care all. Nick.
