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. $\:o$ Last edited by burgermeister; 12/30/09 10:50 AM.

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...

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.

Bass were stacked up in 6-8 foot of water over weed beds and bluegill were congregated in 13-15 foot of water off the side of the dam. After I got done filleting the fish I weighed the meat pile at 16 lbs, and we only kept half the fish we caught! I also caught the absolute biggest bluegill ever through the ice!! I'm thinking its going to crush the existing world record!!!

I never realized so many forum members have caught such insanely huge bluegill. Aquamax or Silver Cup???
