Had one of those chamber of commerce weather days yesterday. Calm, clear, and not too warm:
Gunner and I took the light rods and small jigs to a local farm pond.
Found some nice bluegills. Thick and wide as my hand. Most were over 10” and I could barely get my fingers around them.
Later all.
Jim


Even wore one of my favorite trapping hats for the occasion.

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

Haul them home and relocate them into Lake Crisco. Best deep fried fish around.

Man I love me some fried bluegill and perch. I don’t like to filet them. Just scale, gut and cut off the head. Leave the fins on.

Channels , flatheads and blues are the best eating fish out there and I’ve ate them all and still do so I agree with the Texan
