Nice morning for bluegill
« on: Jan 06, 2008, 01:17 PM »
Got out solo this morning with the Vex and a few jigging rods.  Fished 8' to 12' of water with 6" of solid ice.  Caught a total of 7 bluegill, plus 3 Largemouth Bass and 3 Yellow Perch.  The Bluegills were very nice sized with most going 8 to 9 1/2" and the best one measuring at 10".  The bite was tough and I had to scale down to a tiny Marmooska jig tipped with a spike to get them to commit.
Here are a few photos.



And the best one of the morning at 10":


These yellow perch came out of 20' of water:


Not a bad morning on the ice. 
Looking for JUMBO Perch, Crappie, and Bluegill
