Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

I was just replying to and reading some posts on the bucket list of trash fish thread and got to thinking...

I sure do enjoy these trips into memory and imagination.  I don't know about you folks, but I can start to read posts and/or watch a video and memories come to mind or the imagination starts to run.  I can see the water, hear the sounds and almost feel the tug of the line or see the float disappear as a fish bites.

It's not quite as good as fishing, but still good.  I would say that it is a sign of getting old, but I remember being transported in a similar manner while reading fishing magazines when I was a lot younger.  I guess it is the Walter Mitty in me...
