Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Right now the deep bite is on fire at Lake dunlap the water is holding at 62-64 and the fish are staging near drop offs. I normally fish with live bait on a drop shot rig and it was producing really good yesterday so I decided to try spooning, I must be doing something wrong because I couldn't buy a strike. could any of you guys explain the technique so I can try again today.

I using the rattling spoons in a 1/8 config. tipped with gulp leaches

I caught my biggest fish yet a 13.75 red ear

Thanks! I got some fish with this technique, but I still need a lot of work

It is worth a try and some experimenting
