Do you love big bluegill?

This fellow bass fisherman caught this giant Coppernose BG at California's Diamond Valley Lake. He never weighed or measured it before releasing it! It may have been a new lake record Bluegill! Any guesses as to it's weight?

No he was fishing for bass with a plastic worm on a drop shot rig I believe. He didn't know what it was because "Bluegills don't get that big."

Yeah...I messed up and gave it the same title as the photo of the Striper. Sorry!

Har to tell without a measurement...I'd give it between 2 and 2 1/2. Great, great fish!
