Put in my bluegill spawning bed today. 4 yards of small river rock in what should be 3 to 5 feet of water. Landscape fabric beneath gravel. Chose a gravel larger than pea to increase the spaces between the stones.

Wasn't initially planning to add beds, bluegill will breed anywhere, But Bob Lusk is rubbing off. Optimal spawning habitat should yield lots more forage bluegill for the bass.
