Do you love big bluegill?

It's just plain hot here in Georgia. Been out a few times but can't seem to find many fish. I've fished deep on the bottom with little success, thrown slow falling ant patterns on a fly rod to see if I can locate them in the water column with still little success. Bounced crickets and worms off the bottom. The water temps have been in the 70's and up. Gone early in the morning and at sunset and again, little luck. Any thoughts from you experts? Nick

I'm not an expert, but I'm having the same problem. They eat the fish food I put out, but not bait
