What ? You might think you know what the best bait for bluegills is , you might have what you consider the secret weapon . you might use maggots , red wigglers , night crawlers , mealworms , crickets ,and the list goes on , Corn , crappie bites , crappie nibbles and etc etc etc .
But if you aint never tried weenies you best get you some and dice them up into tiny 1/4 inch pcs and toss them at some bluegill sometime . I am flat out amazed at how much they like them . the best part is they are ridiculous stupid cheap at 1 dollar for 8 bar s brand in these parts . and a package will likely last you the entire summer .
So off we went ,told the owner of the company, myself and my right hand man needed to go ketch fish and asked him if he wanted some bluegill .
you see he is an old Alabama farm boy and flat out loves whole bluegill so I said and if you want I will bring you some ..man did his eye sparkle when I said that .he said
YES .. see you tomorrow rotfl
off we went to the bluegill races and hammer we did , now mind you I also ketched a small bass and we got a few catfish as well , but the target species before and after we ALSO whacked the crappie right good in between took a right fair beat down.
They ran from around 7 to about 9 inches and man did we have some fun in the shade playing with them . Good times no doubt and an ice chest with a mess of them in it . :highfive
KABOOM is the word :cheers2
p.s. many thanks to my good friend Ez for taking us out on a crappie boat ride and allowing us access to them there bluegill on his boat dock before and after :highfive
