Bluegill Bonanza

Went to a local pond today and fished redworms on the bottom in 4-8 fow. The bite was eratic but patience paid off. I took home 21 from 3 hours of fishing. Kept a few marginal gills because I gill hooked them and did not want them to go to waste. The 3 largest are just at 9 inches and really fat. This pond holds good numbers of fish but the algae is covering 3/4 of the water. Was tough fishing until the wind came up and moved most of it to one end of the 150 yd long pond. Here are a couple pics to show off the nice gills. http://i937.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps44eb3ac0.jpg http://i937.photobucket.com/albums/a...psc8f75cea.jpg

Looks like a fish fry in the near future for you!

Nice.Looks like you had a good bit of fun.

Congrats!

I had a similiar experience this evening. The gills started biting about 5:30pm and did not quit until 8:15pm. I must have caught over 30 of them and used up a whole carton of canadian nightcrawlers!

nice catch

That is a nice mess of midwestern gills.
