Hello All

Hello guys and girls. I have just found this forum and I was interested enough to join. I love to fish for bluegill more than any other fish. Its like you can catch them right off the dock where theres like hundreds of them with just a simple jig or worm. You don't need any special equipment or skills. I am considering to get one of those cane poles they sell at our walmart just to have a bit more fun. Well I just thought I'd introduce myself to you....So hi and goodbye for now!!

Questionable Bait

- my family goes fishing almost daily. We use nightcrawlers and mealworms as bait with a lot of success. we just wanted to know if there was any good bait besides that.

- also, what is some good artificial baits. (does YUM and other scented bait work?)

-what are some good jigs, crankbaits and other things like spinners.

- i appreciate your answers alot..........thanx - SARAH and ZACK


ALSO, WHAT ARE SOME SUCCESSFUL FLIES?

It was one of my regular saturdays and I decided to go fly fishing. So I packed my gear up and headed out for a good day of fishing I hope.



As I arrived at the lake which I cant tell you, but as I got there I realized that there was an Inperticular log in the water were I have'nt seen it there before. But I didnt fret I saw it as an oppertunity to catch maybe a Crappie or even a Bluegill, because those are the… Continue

Hello

I am new to this site but not new to Big Gills. Well For Northern Illinois a 9 inch gill is Big for me. I do both Hard and Soft water fishing for Big Gills with good results most of the time. I do a lot of catch and release but also enjoy a good meal now and then. Tight Lines everyone.

Catch and release?

Hi, I'm new here. Seems like a real nice site. Do you keep most of your catch when you go panfishing? Or do you do catch and release? I'm going tomorrow and really don't feel like cleaning fish so I'll be throwing back. I'm sure I'll be getting nice fish as a result!
