Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Got a chance to go fishing for a bit before the storm. Manage to catch a few Gills using a Slate Drake (Wet) if I ain't mistaken.

It's a trout fly for some rivers/streams for native trout in Northern NJ, I never used on trout but the Bluegills don't mind it

I'd be interested in learning about that fly as well.
