Don’t miss the bluegill spawn By Jim Gronaw, Tight Lines Carroll County Times | 0 comments
This is one of my favorite times of the entire year because bluegills are spawning in just about every body of water within a 100-mile-radius of Carroll County.
Of course, you don’t have to travel that far to get in on fast paced, hectic action on the prolific panfish. Some of my best waters are just down the street, with small public lakes and local farmponds leading the pack for great fishing for quality sized bluegills.
My love affair with these fish began when I was 5 years old when I caught my first one on a bobber and a worm. To this very day, I haven’t been the same. As I got a little older I started to seek water and places that had bigger and better bluegill fishing….
…The current state record for bluegill came from Deep Creek – an astonishing 3 pound, 7 ounce fish. Closer to home, local farm ponds can yield quality catches of fish up to and exceeding 10 inches in length. Toss in some big red ear sunfish and hybrid sunfish and you’re in for a treat.
