Tips on how to catch Bluegill:

 

Bluegill is the most common fish in Iowa. They are everywhere from rivers to ponds to creeks. Bluegills are exceptionally good eating and its good because you can catch a lot of them fast. Bluegills spawn when the water is around 75 F so early spring late summer is great. and they spawn in flooded areas so where ever there is a flood usually there will be bluegill

        

        Bluegill are fun to catch they put up a nice fight for their size but best of all they are not picky eaters they eat just about anything I only catch them on worms and nightcrawlers because ill save my bigger better bait for bigger better fish. Bait is expensive you can catch bluegill on even jigs just about anything will work.
