Thanks for adding this group, Sharon! Thanks for all the memories and humor, and commentary, Mr. Bluegillboogieman!

I heard Sharon say she wanted to see the Longhorns play Nebraska again, Bruce do you have a tape of their last game?

No, I burned it... ;-)

This is going to be fun!

It will only be fun if we make it fun! Lets get to it!

Thanks for starting this, Sharon! The Boogster was a cricket man from the word go, and with good reason. They're the best DanG brim bait there is. On the other hand, I just can't bring myself to go fishing without having some worms handy, even if I only use a couple of them. I guess it goes back to my raisin'.

count me in on this group. The BGBM was a big part of this site. Him & Mayo put me on to fishing with cricket. Like Dan my upbring was a canepole and a worm.

Comment by bluegillboogieman on April 7, 2010 at 4:54am I did it again!!!
I re-read the rules. Surprising how simple they are and easy to follow. We all make mistakes and sometimes get a little passionate about our favorite little fish buddy. That's why I pledge to re-read the rules all along, to keep my passion at public decency levels. I love this site and our simple rules make it enjoyable for all. I don't care if you re-read 'em or not. I just know it don't hurt me none to do it all along. I'm a backslider from way back.


This was his outlook for this site. And from another backslider ( old fort) I fully agree. This site is about how and where to catch bluegills. But to some of us it a connection to our friend. We share picture of our kids, grandkids and even wedding. The BGBM I know felt the same as most of us. Friends, Fishing,and Family

Boogieman's daughter got the guest book back up and Searcy's Funeral Home. Here is the link:

Thank you Heather

you could ask a quetion and bang boogieman had the anwser. Might not be right all the time but he had an answer lol

Magnolia, I think Thanksgiving will be your Bigbluegill 1st birthday. Remember, the first post you made was "BURRRRP"!!!! ..

I asked the question when do bluegills span?

Comment by bluegillboogieman on February 2, 2010 at 12:28pm Delete Comment What I most want to know is WHERE! But knowing their temp requirements is a good start. I would think you could find them spawning in the deep south from March through September though I have been told by some pond managers around my area they bed year round. If temps are of primary importance, I doubt year round would hold true. Then again, if their preferred spawning temp is a range of say 10 degrees, as the temps rise over the summer, or fall in the winter, would they move their beds to deeper water? Inquiring minds want to know. ..

This is my final post on my friend boogieman HIS BOAT
I'm going to get me one setup just like this

You ain't the only one that looks at the forum in that light, Rick. Most of my best friends come from forums like this, and I considered Boog to be one of them. We never managed to actually get face to face, but we talked about it a lot, here, via email, and by telephone. Like most folks, we thought we had plenty of time. We shouldn't let that happen again.

Dan
I can’t agree more. This site was setup to share information on bluegills. But any social site where people meet and be-friend people on site, a bond between them can not but be formed. At the same time people really don’t want to put their problem out so everyone can see. There are several options that we can us on this site. Private Messages are the best tool we can use to talk about issues that are not site related. Now I’m not even going to say that any of us are anywhere near the Opera in giving out personal advice. But I have over the pass 60 year been down many hard roads. All any of us can say “ I did it this way” I really care about this site and the people on this site.
As we get months and year on this site, the net is starts getting smaller around us bring us closer and closer together.

How about the day Boogie discovered the leader board?

This discussion was closed for replies. I read all the way through it, I didn't see anything against the rules. Anyone know why it was closed?
