With the water temps at 69 and the full moon a couple of day ago I headed out early Saturday morning in search of some bluegill and found some who said they wanted to come along for a ride. It's starting to happen! :woohoo Bonus crappie came along also!

Headed back out for the evening with the wife and found a few more that wanted to see the cleaning station also.

I'm thinking some fish tacos might be in order here very soon!
Can't wait to get back out after some more!

All fish caught on 1/80 oz. jigs hand tied by me, and tipped with half of a crappie nibble. These colors have been killing it this spring on crappie and now gills too.

Good catch, and a good looking jig. That cleaning station is nice, seems to fit the surroundings in that beautiful state.

Great catch. That cleaning station looks awesome.

Great looking colors on the Bluegills and also like that color of the jig.

Beautiful - fish and jig! Congrats.

Awesome, thanks

Nice station. Wish they had those everywhere, but sadly not the case. All those fish are awesome.

It sure does. A very professional job!

Thanks for taking us along, it’s quite a ride. Great fish and cleaning station, never seen one like that for the public. Showing the jig is like a Christmas present to me as I also tie. I buy the hook and do everything else. Some like that will be used next weekend when I go with my granddaughter. Again, thank you.

Gonna be tasty..... Nice catches.... And on a jig tired by yourself :cheers2

Thanks everyone had a blast catching them, they fight so hard! The cleaning station is actually in a private campground but it is open to the public for day use just have to pay a small fee. It was built by a local guy who has a saw mill, he mills all the lumber himself! He builds the same type of structure as a BBQ station they really are beautiful! His Craftsman ship is phenomenal.

I usually pour all my own jig heads also just don't have a mold that small yet, I did paint the head myself though

Good catch.
