    Default Nothing but bluegill.


    Okay I lied, 8 bluegill and a 2lb bass lol. Went out this morning just for bluegill on the spot I went out yesterday for bass but got a lot of bluegill nibbles. Not good but not bad since I don’t fish a lot for bluegill and don’t know what I should do. On the other hands Majorcraft Speedstyle S63UL with 4lb Nanofil performed nicely casting “Trout Slayer” on 1 gram jig head but still struggling with trout magnet. Another bad experience with nanofil was “wind” a little bit of wind and I lost touch with the lure.

    Nice bluegills, real nice.
    I tried Nanofil when it first came out and ran afoul of its missbehaving when one fishes slack lines, which I do as a matter of course with the very light lures I prefer. I gave up on it. I went back to GAMMA PolyFlex which I have been using for a long time. I have yet to find anything better.
    When I get regular panfish nibbles but no real takes, I assume I have form right on my choice of tail and maybe not quite on it with the color. Or maybe form right and size a bit wrong; not always too big, sometimes too small. The nibbles tell you that you are close. You are probably just a tweak away.

    Great pictures, reminds me of a song about California Gills, they do have the sunshine and obviously get so tanned. If you have seen pictures of Lake Perris Gills, you would wish they all could be California Gills.
