Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Bob Davis and I fished spoons Saturday in the Madison, WI area. 70 miles Northwest of my location, we hit the lake at 7am and fished the morning using 1/4 oz Swedes tipped with waxworms, and crawler chunks.....we caught many smaller gills and a few respectable ones as well....quite a few small largemouth and a pike also entertained our spoon offerings. Bob had the hot hand, and was a real natural to the spoon presentation......Thanks Bob, I had a great time, and I'm looking forward to another chance at this lake..
Even this lil guy wanted the 1/4oz model!

An iridesent hot pink Swedish Pimple?...Bob,....what were you thinking?

Nice catch Bob!
