GET READY - SET - GET READY TO GO !!! Ordered my Stubby Steve's yesterday. I'm tired of throwing some pelltes, then fishing with worms and have the BG ignore the worm or even sunken pellets on a hook.

I went out this eve for a few minutes to test out my new outfit w/4# line. Caught a HSB (1#) and one of the rainbows stocked in Nov. I used a roostertail. Had to quit after 10 minutes - too cold (about 35). 
Just do it...

Too cold?? I would love to see 35 degrees. It is 7 degrees right now with a -8 wind chill (western burgs of Chicago). Suppose to get down to 3 tonight. It was -1 this morning when I headed out the door to goose hunt.
Actually fished the White river below Bull Shoals Dam on Monday and it was in the upper 30s. Fished 3 hours and caught over 20 rainbows.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

I also caught the absolute biggest bluegill ever through the ice!! I'm thinking its going to crush the existing world record!!!  That might be the ice fishing BG record, Nate, but I landed a bigger one from open water last Spring.

I dont have a 2010 fishing license yet so its a good thing I dont have to worry about submitting mine for the world record. I never realized so many forum members have caught such insanely huge bluegill. Aquamax or Silver Cup???

Oh come on guys, I've caught pollywogs bigger than those fish...  Oh and before you yell at me George, please keep in mind that I didn't start this thread disruption. (I have no desire to be beat like a rented mule).

Bruce and Cat's seem to be pure bluegill, but I'm afraid Nate and Theo's look to be GG hybrids.
Not sure about the pollywog; would have to get a closer look....and I ain't goin' there!
