1st kg CNBG (this season) @ LP 05 03 18
Water up 2' temp dropped to 64*F. Slow start today - ran to the dam to find it still has a lot of buoys from the trials.
Took a look at the tire reef - scored a pig on the 1st cast. Caught 2 more there but there was too much moss.
Trolled the front of BG rock and found a REELY big hen!
Only used 3 jigs - new ones caught the big fish.
All fish were released. 2lb test and 1/48th Belly Spinner jigs tipped with crickets. The fish can not be landed with out a boat - there is too much structure and plant growth. Majority of the fish were caught in 17 to 22 FOW.
Way to start the morning

Man those are quality fish Sonny. I have a question about red ears. I posted a picture of a hen red ear that was 13in. on FB and titled it something like "check out our big gill caught today" and quite a few people posted that is was a red ear not a gill. Isn't the red ear in the blue gill family or do people separate it from them? I'm still kind of new to serious blue gill fishing and don't know all I should about the species yet. All I know if you scale down your tackle and target these guys you are in for a ton of fun.
