Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

One of the Best on the Albemarle.......Olive Gronaw Grass Shrimp

Jim fine tuned a design after studying several brackish water grass shrimp photos and what a winner......I've caught over a 1,000 gills each of the last two warm weather seasons on this bug and hundreds of tidal Crappie......I lock these up on my boat to ensure my guests do not wipe them out completely.....fishing exclusively under a float and often enhanced with a live grass shrimp making them the exact forage in my region......

HOW RIGHT YOU ARE DAVID , ELOQUENT COMES TO MIND OF YOUR STATEMENT .........

It is nice to know both your waters and that you have a supply of, "That Which Reliably Works."

Anglers the world over spend their entire lives trying for both and never make it.

If "Survivor" was to ever come to the Albemarle.....I would sneak a couple of these in my bag so I would always have fresh fish....
