New to Florida Gillers, glad to join. I live in Oak Hill, FL and am interested in finding good bream fishing in Central FL (East). I fish both flies and live bait, just enjoy catching them and the bigger the better. CharlieA

anyone in florida fishing gills on a fly rod what are you having luck on
Comment by Tim Roberts on April 28, 2013 at 7:19am

I absolutely enjoy hooking up a big bluegill on my Sage 3 wt rod. The bluegills I catch on Lake Okeechobee this time of year bend my flyrod in half. Thats what I call one of life's simple pleasures.

New member to Florida Gillers. I live in Lakeland area and love to panfish. It is pretty cool to be able to get local information from others who enjoy the same type fishing.
