Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

I posted this picture to show Greg William's the popper that I always use when I'am fly fishing for Gill's. It's called the Purple Cow Popper #8. This is the best popper I have bar none!

Angelo do you think we can get a good side view shot, the hook area so I can see the feathers a little better.

Leo, it's like working any Gill popper. 

Comment by Leo Nguyen on August 28, 2012 at 3:19pm

Very unique indeed!! Is there an instruction for this?

Comment by Jen Nayfly on August 28, 2012 at 3:12pm

That's one I'd like to add to my collection!

Dick this purple cow does the trick, My 2 video's that I posted on here are using the purple cow, with this new pond The Gill's destroy this little guy, My other lake I fly fish the bass prefer it more.

Almost looks like a floating jig head built up if not I'll bet it might work.

That is a frightening thing. If I was a 'gill, I'd run from it!

This popper is the greatest. I didn't tie this fly Dick, I order it on a website. I'am lucky that I did.
