George, did I miss something?
I thought this was a thread about how to catch bluegill. Are you saying that since I have a few dozen hybrids in my pond that I shouldn't use this rig?
I've never killed a single hybrid in my pond from playing him too long. I just take it easy on 'em when it's hot out.
Bruce, we must have been posting at the same time - did you read Blanton's comments above? Did you note his credentials?
He was addressing BG's - I was addressing BG's.
The diffference is, in our pond I am as likely to hook a 15# CC or GC as a BG.
I knew I was going to get into deep doo-doo when I posted my opinion about UL tackle - even for BG's.
You are an exceptinal angler and I admire your skills on catching big fish on UL tackle but IMO it is not for the novice fisherman.
