Good man! I see I am infecting many of you with this madness.
Bruce, you certainly infected me -- and it is really paying off. A little over a year ago I couldn't tell a boy bluegill from a girl bluegill until I was cleaning it.

I don't have my spreadsheet in front of me, but of about 75 bluegill caught this season, my median size (male and female combined) is over 8 inches. We keep all females below about 9 inches, and all brightly colored males under about 6.5 inches. Most of the males we catch are between 8.5 and 10.5 inches.

Thanks Bruce -- and Bill C., and Cecil, and Theo, and ewest . . . . and all the rest of you. Until I found Pond Boss, I never realistically believed anybody, especially me, could have such a fantastic bluegill pond.
