Some nice gills today
« on: Jan 22, 2008, 06:41 PM »
Got out from about 3:30 til dark on a local pond.  Caught a bunch of gills, plus a yellow perch, some largemouth and a brown trout.  4 of the gills were 10" or more, best was 10.5".  Small jigs tipped with wax worms in 10' to 11' worked best.

Here are a few pics:

I thought you New Englanders considered bluegills trash fish?  ???   ;)  At least where I go in Massachusetts they do. I have them all to myself in Massachusetts.
I live in the midwest now but have fond memories of fishing in New England as a kid.

I'll admit that I don't target bluegill in open water, but they are great fun to jig up through the ice, especially the 10" ones.

Excellent CT bulls HB! Fish 'em open water in April from that water & you'll take even bigger gills...  :laugh:
