Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

This i wanted to pass along not sure if it was brought up here or not but i read it on another forum. so it is not my own tip, but get some raw popcorn shrimp or the small shrimp. cut up into small tiny bite sized pieces and fill a container with water and half salt.(pickling may work better) let stand for a day and drain off water. dived all pieces into little bags and put in freezer. these work great for tipping jigs or as bait. they are hearty and last and seem to work really well. when you get home just throw it in the fridge or freezer n it will last a long time and many trips. from one batch of shrimp this bait will last you months of fishing. just lay out n it will thaw quickly. let me know how it works
