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!

I was just reading a topic about this on another Report forum and it picqued my interest.Along with the propsed Big Gill alliance, Mr Rorer was talking about. Anyhow here in SE Wi, we have a limited number of options, to where you can catch some true giant gills, for our area here in the north. I can think of 2 that are about an hour, to an hour and a half from me.One, I won't go to due to money and just the insane craziness on the lake, the other I try to fish about once a week if I can.This… Continue
