Do you love big bluegill?
New here
A guy at work put me on to the site. VERY NICE!!!!!!!!!! I love bluegills and turkey hunting. I don't post much on other forums I am on but do enjoy reading them. The photo is my wife's 10" gil. Caught on Round Lake Petosky Mi. On the board is an antique lure her aunt gave me. The lure is the Creek Chub Fly Rod lure. It is about 1-3/8" long plus tail. Her Aunt worked at Creek Chub and this was one of the last she had.
