Hit the pond yesterday evening with the crickhopper, looking for Bluegills. I love this lure.

I have done nothing at all yet to this pond as far as BGs go.











They were all about the same size basically around 8" or so.



I stopped because I was nailing them left and right and they are on their beds. But anyhow it seems my pond is full of 8" BG's.

I'll admit to thinking it when I saw the first photo....the one with the big eyed, big finned female....... sorry! grin


"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"

If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1)
And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.

Thanks sprkplug, I'm just thinking that a feeder could maybe put these BGs into trophy size in one year.

But its a 4 acre pond and these BG beds are everywhere.
