The Elusive 10" Bluegill!
Wow! My 7 year old (CJ) and I headed to a local pond to catch a couple Largemouth Bass for a species contest we entered for the month of May. Little did we know what was about to happen. CJ's first cast hooked a monster 9 inch Bluegill. We then paddled out on the kayak to a spot to fish Largemouth. No luck. I tied on CJ's favorite, a silver Panther Martin spinner. Minutes later he lands a monster 10.5 inch "Gillzilla!" He decides to relish his prize by building sand castles and I head back out about 50 yards for a possible Crappie or Bluegill. Three casts, 8.5, 9.5, and then a 10 incher! We fished an entire summer last year and did not produce one 10 inch Bluegill! In one evening we both get a master angler and satisfaction of getting our very own "gillzilla."
