Summer's Over But These Panfish Won't Stop Biting - post summer is the time
What started as a slow trip turned into an action-packed evening thanks to perfect timing around the minor and major lunar periods. With the lake all to myself , I put the long casts to work and connected with a steady mix of bluegills and crappies. From hard-fighting 8-inch gills to crappies pushing 12 inches, every fish bent the rod deep and reminded me why panfish are some of the most exciting fish ounce-for-ounce. Along the way, I share real-time thoughts on:
