Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

When you see green soupy water in your areas (Cyanobacterial Algal Blooms)

Try not to swim and play in green soupy water. You may be ending up in the hospital:

Just a bit of something we've been monitoring and tracking on in the past decade. Be safe out there.

GREAT TOPIC LEO !!  AND;; JUST A LITTLE WHILE AGO;  ONE MAN DIED;; FROM SWIMMING IN A LAKE IN MARYLAND;; DUE TO A BRAIN EATING BACTERIA !   THIS ALSO REMINDS ME OF THE ; ( RED TIDE ) IN SALT WATER;; WHEN IT HAPPENS;; DONT EAT THE FISH; OR SHELL FISH !   IT COULD BE THE LAST TIME YOU DO IT !

If this waters dangerous it's showing subtle signs .

Look along the bank, best is near the reeds and overhanging trees, where sunlight is abundant. This is where they thrive since nutrients are accumulating near the density of trees.

Will do Leo ! Appreciate your input  on this .

Thanks for the heads-up. Looks like something from a bad 1950s horror movie.
