Bluegills and Sunfish

Post by squidbo63 » Mon Jun 18, 2007 12:53 pm

Buddy of mine hit lake Ki, said he caught too many to count.
I remember doing the same there around this time last year.
Just too dang far of a drive for me.
Use worms with no weight and no bobber, use a black swivel, on a UL rig, #8 hook with worms or maggots,
tossed under the cedar trees in the shade near shore, waters about 3-4 feet deep, also
near lilly pads, 4-6 feet.
You can use a bobber, but we did better presenting the bait naturally.
Boat launch sucks, more like a gravel shoulder of road, you have to
Park across the street.
Still a nice little lake.:cyclops:

Were the bluegills eating size or too small? I hate fishing Ki with my lund, suicide mission putting the boat in there on that road. But I can always bring the 1 man pontoon. Sunday Lake is usually a sure bet for gilly's right off the dock. I went there on the 15th of June and got skunked with the kids. That will set back there desire to fish another couple of months.
I have never met a fish yet that respected a big purchase. You can own a $100 boat or you can own a $30,000 boat. You might be more comfortable, but don't expect any fish to care about your investment.
