    Default Cold Water Gill Meat


    Did some pond maintenance cleaning out some stunted bluegills. Probably didn't make a dent but might help. Also caught a bullhead on some garlic chicken

    Nice bag of fish. Lots to clean but the dinners will be outstanding. I’m thinking fish tacos.

    I use a butter knife to scale, I learned on this site to let the fish sit on ice flat over night and it makes scaling and filleting easier. Ill probably fry these whole and peel the backstrap. If you pull the dorsal fins after frying the backstrap flakes right off

    Hot dogs will catch anything, including myself, haha. But never underestimate the power of Bacon, here's a video with a guy catching bass, blugill and crappie on bacon. He also has a video catching flounder with bacon. It has a nice bouyancy in the water that makes it attractive to fish

    Watched a fella wear the flounder out with a strip of chicken . I have to admit it looked alive moving in the water
