Bedding Gills on Diplomat Extreme 6’ 2”
Had a fantastic 2 hours on Bald Knob Lake. Boated over 60 chunky 8 inch bluegill. Would have stayed longer but the heat ran us off. I say us as I had my wife along for my net girlSeriously it sure makes it nice to have her along. She can even back the trailer down. This lake is a complete puzzle to me. Yesterday I found plenty of bluegill beds. I am puzzled as to why you can’t find any bluegill after the spawn in this lake. You also rarely catch dinks out of here. All of these fish are at or around the 8 inch mark with real good girth. I had one shell cracker. It is obvious I have missed the shell cracker spawn. It had to have happened in the first week of April. Ran into a couple of live scopers again and they told me they didn’t find a single crappie. The Diplomat rod is a fun rod to fish. It is solid tip and very sensitive. Although a solid tip is very different in sensitivity than a tubular tip. You feel the pressure in the tip when the fish hits. The fish hook themselves with this rod. The spawn will probably be done by the time I get back out there. Going up to the White River next week for some serious trout fishing.

If you’re only gonna get one cracker, that was a nice one. If those gills were all I could catch I’d probably be pretty content with em. Looks like a good day for you two.

LOVE to get into the BG beds and don't have the go to Lake for them I used to have. My buddy on a smaller lake we fish just told me he found some and we will be on them next week so excited for that.
That is a great bunch of males you were ketchn and only the one cracker. Nice haul and having that net girl is a valuable resource to have. tried to take mine with me last weekend but it was all "why are you parking there", "why are you fishing there" " I want worms", "I don't know how to cast this pole" blah blah blah. We stopped trying to fish and went to grocery store instead and that was the end of my trying to get my wife involved.
