These bluegill were a mere 11.5 to 12 inches, and about 1-12

The LMB was 21.5 inches, and heaven knows how much it weighed. Maybe Lusk will chime in. The Boga Grips are a little iffy on weighing, but I'd say this fish was close to 8 lbs.

We caught some bluegill that were a full 50% bigger that we'll share photos of later.

I'm convinced the fish in my right hand is a CNBG male. Yes, they typically had nape scale tipping, but many of these fish lack the large eartab development.


Holding a redear sunfish is like running with scissors.
