I was watching Bill Dance's fishing show yesterday and in just a little 10 second tip he mentioned that Blue Gill switch to eating vegetation at some point during the year. He didn't explain why. IIRC (which is doubtful) I think that he said that they switched to eating vegetation in late summer or fall. In the show his point was that during this period they would be harder to catch.
In all my many, many years on Pond Boss and even though I have been ever so studious I don't recall anyone ever mentioning that Blue Gill switch into a vegetarian mode at some point during the year. Seems kinda suspect to me.
What say you?
