Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Hey - Just went out last weekend - Saturday was warm and I found a mini-moonscape at dusk. I caught and kept about a dozen mature male BG. Seems no females we on or near the beds. They are just getting going here.

I didn't measure but I'd guess they were all 7-8" and full of vigor. I plan to hit a couple other lakes next weekin search of mature BG>

Our Ice fishin was super this year by all accounts. I'm not much of an Ice fisherman - but we had ice from Thanksgiving until late March this year. Lots of my freinds did great on Perch & BG,
