Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Well, they were not exactly stacked on top of each other, but FINALLY, the Red Ears are starting to come up ! I caught about 12 of them, plus two BG's, one of which was close to 1 1/2 lbs. Fought really hard.

 

But anyway, the first fish was a nice RE, of about 1 1/2 lbs. Next was about 3/4's...

 

Then, I stuck this fat pig of a RE !  :-) She went 3.05 lbs on my certified scale :-) I thought the photos came out good too, as it was still cloudy, and I used a bunch of fill flash.....

After the big one, the size tapered off....

 

I'd love to go back tomorrow, but I think they will need a few more days to really stack up !

 

Can't wait until next week !!!  :) Whooo Hooo ! :-)

 

Oh, and this guy was totally posing :-) I think he wanted his photo posted on BBG.com :-)

 

Peace,

Fish

Way to go, Chris!       Keep in the zone for the four pounder.
