That was a Nice One Ross!!!!
Thanks Ross! Not in your league yet but I'm getting there. Those are some dandy gills that you just posted also. Your photo page is simply incredible!
Hi Ross,
Sorry, I didn't see your question until now. For bluegill I'm looking for 11 1/4 inches and larger. Ones that have a healthy look to them and are not long and skinny.
Looks like the ones you catch are healthy!
On my page I have a Fish List of other species with sizes for Free replicas. If you catch a fish that makes the list I will mold the fish you caught and make a replica from the mold, Free!
Holy Moly, I see pig after hog after monster wow nice big fish! Keep em comin.
Tight line!
