Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Well I have about a week I think left in my biggills spawning water its been a blast this year kinda slow at first but once they were on it was great. I put about 400 gills into the freezer and fried about 50 so far. now its going to be a fun to find them in the deep and chace the big bucket mouths too. I will post pics of my bed fish this year soon. by the way 75% of my gills on the beds were 8" or more lots of 10. Like I said the pics will come soon Have fun and take a kid fishing or just on the water

800 fillets in your freezer?.....did you take any pics of the 10"ers?
Yes I do have pics of the pigs and i think i am starting to grow an anal fin
That definitely got a good laugh out of me.
WOW! I love some good fried bluegill, but DANG! As Alton brown would say, that's some good eats!
