Whats your favorite lure to use to catch bluegills
Without sounding biased, I use my own Wade's Blade 98% of the time. Tip one of the size #8 hooks with a waxworm, is hard to beat! I've fished Reelfoot Lake in TN and Kentucky Lake. Everywhere I go th…

Twenty words or less for folks wanting to catch more bluegill.
Fish deeper water during the spawn! Everyone "beats the banks" looking for bedding fish. You'll be surprised what you find!

Great looking jig Steve!
John,
Great point about the fish looking and swimming bye. There are a number of times when I'm ice fishing and open water fishing, with my lure just sitting there. Once I pop the jig or twitch it, I get bit instantly. Have wondered many times, as t…
John,
What type of camera is being used to make the video? Picture quality looks really good.
Thanks,
Greg
If you've caught a redear sunfish, or if you want people to THINK you've caught a redear sunfish, this is the group for you.
Last year (2009)was the first year slip floating for me and found it to be very effective.Would like folks that are into this kind of fishing to post photos of gear and tips on the best rods ,reels ,bait and terminal tackle to use.
Beauty!
Is that Long Lake?
Great stringer shot Steve!! Those were the days....
What a brute!
Great catch Greg! What did get them on?

Thank you very much for that info, BC! My usual spot out there (and they only one I know, really) is Bethany Reservoir, up near the wind farms, a mile or 2 west of Clifton Court Forebay. It has loads of bluegill and I caught a 9" redear last time I…
Is this a rock bass or a type of bream?
My nephew asked me a question are goldfish edidable? I could not say.
I have seen one goldfish about the size of a small carp around 17 inches.
Beautiful fish! A Gillzilla!
Hey , I'm a flyroder and use crickets all the time , about the only time I use artificial flys is when I run out of crickets or I'm fishing for smallmouths. The only limitation is it's harder to fish deeper than your flyrod is long but it is possibl…
Yes they are Jim. The lower fish wasn't near the work of the top one.
Will somebody get me some distilled water! I just licked my screen! Thats one awsume lookin fly! Like boggie man said it must be a labor of love because just like his other suggestion. I just use live crickets on a fly rod! HAHA! I wish I coulda see…
Ive got a tackle box full! I love the bitsy minnow. There awsume. I was fishing with my dad and he was casting a bitsy minow while I was draggin crickets. I was embarresed when he was over 20 gills ahead. I had to swallow my pride and ask to borrow…
Cool you fly fish?
Although I usually fish for bass, the most fun I've ever had fishing was when I found myself casting Strike King Bitsy Minnows and Rapala CD1's into a school of bull blue gills suspending under a creek bridge. The action was nonstop.
Since then, I'…
AWESOME question! Pop-up is the main bite early and I call that a "lift".
If you have proper gear- your float will (( lift )) slightly up in the water.
The reason I talk about sensitivity in a setup is that fish eject their food all day long. Somet…
good one Josh
The catfish in my pond are awake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Which of those work for you Dale?
Is that cricket PINK?????? Greg, the lengths you have gone to fashion a cricket for a flyrod. I must apologize. I should have told you you could use REAL crickets on a flyrod. # 10 hook, single "B" sinker, small float, rollcast. I've read Shooter's…
Are they skin mounts? If they are, they are very good! Trophy natives!
