Well another spawning bluegill
fishing season has come and gone without me reaching my quest of landing fifty
super size bluegill during the spawn. I can be somewhat content knowing I landed
some nice bull gills this year that gave my 3 and 4 weight fly rods quite a
workout.
This season added a few
more poppers, as if I needed more flies, to my collection including the Barr Nunn
popper. This was the popper that proved that color really makes a difference at
times during the spawn. I will be back in action for another season next year,
and hopefully reach my goal. I ended this season 23 short of my goal.
This colorful Pumpkinseed sunfish
was one of the last gills I brought to hand for this season----looking forward
to next spring!!
