100 Bluegill on 2018 Fine Tail SUL Rod.

Had a great day below Nickajack Dam catching over 100 Gills......around 50 at the 8-8.5 inch mark. Sat on same spot to catch all fish except for the KY spot. Fish were is 21 feet of water hugging the bottom. Used a 1.5 and 2 gram Daiwa Gekkabijin jig head with a Bison and Sow Bug colored Trout Magnet. The rod of course was the New Fine Tail Area Stage 6’ 3” super ultra light. It was all about fun today. Life is good!

looks fun for sure , btw what species is the first photo ? red ear ? hybrid ? or …..?

I can not wait to try that rod out up here on Barkley. If it performs as well as I think it will, I'll probably buy another one. I think it would be the perfect shellcracker/bluegill rod, and probably decent on the crappie, too!

Your top picture looks like a big ole female redear!

What a great day you had! Congrats! Looks like the temps were on the brisk side on the water!

It was a lot of fun Stan......but using ester on that rod and getting into Spotted bass can be stressful....LOL.

It is a cross....best I can tell a mix of red ear and redbreast sunfish. I’d like to get into a lot more like that one.

To me this rod....for the money...is probably the best bluegill rod out there for sensitivity and fun factor rolled into one.

You did well, for sure, Congrats

That’s a good day Randy. I’m waiting for the river to recede so I can chase a few gills myself. Nice pics.
