How to catch a blue gill.

Although the blue gill and the large mouth bass are related fish they hunt and eat very different things. For starters the blue gill has a much smaller mouth but they are pretty aggressive during breeding season like the Bass are. The key when going for these fish is to use medium sized baits. The bait should not be so big that when the fish bites it all you feel is a pull on the line and it is never hooked. Like I said these fish have very small mouths. Even though they are smaller they still are very aggressive and lots of fun to catch. A large adult will pull like a small sized bass in many instances. Some people say that they use worms but I have never had luck with worms. They always hit on medium sized bait fish of some kind or a smaller spoon. Have fun and happy fishing!!
