Bluegill

The Bluegill is a common North American fish.  Ranging in size form 6-8 inches and weighing between 1/4 - 1/2 pound, the Bluegill is a member of the sunfish family and sometimes referred to as a bream, brim or copper nose.  The Bluegill is known as a popular game fish that is easy to catch.  The Bluegill will bite at brightly colored bait at dawn and dusk.  Perfect baits for this fish include live bait, flies, corn and spinners.  Bluegills often seek shelter in underwater vegetation of lakes and ponds. 

Fishing is a great family activity and Bluegill are included in many AQUA DOC Proline Fish Stocking Programs.  The cooler waters of fall make it a great time to stock your lake or pond.  If you're interested in stocking your water, call us for a free consultation with one of our Aquatic Specialists.  Our Specialist will evaluate your lake or pond and tailor the perfect Proline Stocking Program.  Happy Fishing!
