Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Having hit a slump lately, I wanted a change up. Stumbling over Tootys post where he shows his two go-to bugs, I gave the purple one a whirl.
This fish grabbed it.
Is one fish a definitive result? I dunno.
But I'll be tying up some more.

Pellet flies, Allen? - haha! Maybe one day.
What a cool idea.

Thanks for the encouragement, Don. I think of each day as a learning event at the pond.
Today, among other things, I learned I should be wearing long pants at dusk. The skeeters are appearing.

 Water is still a bit cold, keep at em and one day soon they will grab anything you throw at them.....The end of April always seems to be a good turning point. And then there's the first full moon in May....
