I tried the surf leader using two size 8 circle hooks and a 1/4oz bass casting weight at Clear Lake this weekend using Berkley Honey Worms. This worked great, think bluegill fight hard? Try...

Would using a surf leader setup work for targeting deep bluegill? That way it's barely suspended off the bottom, I'd like to try this rig using #8 circle hooks also.

Are Tru Turn Hooks designed to hook in a fish's lips also? I bought some #8 circle hooks for bream, but I'd like to try a variety of hooks that reduce gut hooking as I am not that good at setting...

BPS Micro Lite Supreme Reel

I have the regular model, not the Supreme. But I love mine and...

Whats even more funny is that he didn't realize it lol. If I smelled like bug juice I think I'd notice, his sense of smell must be shot! :p

Ah I see what you're saying, but wouldn't the bait sink also after time? Or do you keep the weight moving as if you're fishing for bass?

Suspended after adjusting? Sorry I'm having a hard time imaging what you're trying to say. From what I understand the bait will still be lying on the bottom.

What kind of rig would you use for this? A surf leader? Drop shot? 3 way swivel? And would you use a circle hook to prevent gut hooking since you're not using a float as an indicator? Sorry for...

I assumed that when the egg weight is directly in front of the lure it would effect the action of the lure. Also another question about freelining, isn't it better to have the bait suspended or do...

I use weighted floats, but they are not the slip sinker type so I can't get the bait down to the bottom. When freelining do you just put the bait on the hook and add a split shot and just cast the...

Hey everyone, what rigs do you use for catching bluegill? Other than the usual bobber setup, which is the only one I'm really familiar with. I recently found out that BIG bluegill stay in deeper...

All these are great pictures. Here's one I took last year:

Holy cow you guys are friendly! 2 pages of welcomes already :) By the way, I'm from the Bay Area in California.

I'm both new to the forum and new to crappie fishing. I've only caught 2 since i started fishing last year and would like to catch some more. I hope to learn from everyone here!

Go to BPS or wal-mart and check out the selection. They come in...

I have a couple of clear bobbers and would like to try fly fishing with my UL spinning gear. How long should the leader be? Does the splash of the clear bobber scare away the bluegill? Has anyone...
