Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Got out for 30 minutes before work this morning, and I caught 5 HBG. All good fish, although the cold killed the batteries in my scale, so estimating weight between 1 lb for smaller fish, and around 22 ozs. for largest. Ice jig tipped with spikes, water has risen to 44 degrees, air temp was 30 degrees.

Agreed....these fish are shockingly fat and are still biting despite the cold. Excellent!
