Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Dear Mr. 2lbgill,

I just wanted to let you know that you are a huge inspiration for this site. I saw your website, www.2lbgil.com a while before this site existed and I remember thinking what a cool deal that it was that you took time to create such a nice place for bluegill lovers. It was a big inspiration for www.bigbluegill.com

I've noticed some things about you since you joined our website.

1. You really know your bluegill. You're a terrific resource, and a creative thinker when it comes to big gills.

2. You're a computer wizard. Your skills in creating graphics, videos and your overall ability to use technology are very impressive.

3. Your generosity with your time and information are second to none. I think it's great that you want to share the wealth, so to speak.

So here's a tribute to 2lbgill. Thanks for hanging out with us, and I hope you'll be around for a long time to come.

Sincerely,

Bruce Condello, Aaron M and everybody at Big Bluegill

Bruce, very nice touch. Mr. 2lb Gill has some good information regarding Gill fishing. Here is one of my favorites (fishing Gills on Lake Geneva which is located in Wisconsin). http://www.2lbgil.com/bluegill-fishing.html

Thanks Don,

No apologies necessary, Jim. I was on 2lbgill's site too. Anybody following this discussion should take a moment and check in to www.2lbgil.com

To be honest, I was checking out 2 lb's site before I landed here. Sorry, Bruce! And I am amazed at the size and quality of those northern giant gills!

With your closing statement today 2lb gill you said it all. For the first time I tried a lil artificial. I caught 2 crappie while on a jig while my shiners were swimming aside. I know it doesnt sound like much but its a milestone for someone who has wanted to do it. This site has taught me just what you said. PAY ATTENTION!
