That black and yellow bead head jitterbee is a gill catcher.

Went to Larto yesterday. Put in at Bud’s. They sure are nice people! Fished Shad Lake area only landed one. It was a large female, at least a pound. Lost two more just like that one trying swing them in instead of netting them. Had a report of a place I’ve never been, made a long boat ride. Clearer water(water in Shad Lake was a bit stained with a current). No crappie, but started catching large bream on shiners. Started using 1/3 of a shiner and it was on! Caught about 20 big bluegills in an hour. Nice day. I was missing Larto.
I even caught one on a fly that I tied. It’s called a Jitterbee!

"G" Gone but not forgotten!!
Nice catch. They were hitting shiners... those bull bluegill don't play. If weather hold up I'm going to try tomorrow morning.
Good Luck. 3-5 fow. I was fishing over what is usually dry at normal water level. I think the front yard of a camp. Sandy bottom I think. Where do you put in?
