went to a public lake today with buddy justin. I had one of the best days of gill fishing i can remember i ended up catching 34 gills every one i kept was over 9" up to my 11.75 inch redear, justin ended up with real close to his limit and had a monster redear also but we never measured it. tons of pike cruising around Also i had a 32-33 incher try and eat my tear drop like 5 times he just kept coming back, I wsih i would have had a spear. Gills are a aggresive as i have ever seen em, they were smoking every lure and bait comno you dropped inj the hole, i was using a white pounder with big waxies, justin was using a brown fiska teardrop with wigglers, get out on that ice and catch the big pigs!!!!!
