Perris Bluegill

I fished Lake perris this saturday with my neighbor Ron "godzilla" as some of you guys know him....We found the bluegill honey-hole!!! Too much fun! We used crickets and redworms for bait, 2lb mono ultra light rod, we ended up catching close to a hundred if not more between the two of us...bluegill and redear. I ended up releasing just as many as I kept.



We were anchored up in about 7' of water, casting to fish that were sitting 3 to 4' deep. It didn't really start going off until the temp reached about 70, and then it was on! It slowed down around noon, and we were done by that time anyways... it was a blast!!!

I have no problem with the bones just my wife is barely starting to like fish and even fishing at that.
So I was going to take her to a great blue gill honey whole in the mountains to get her into fishing but wanted to teach her you eat what you keep.

Where are you finding them? The dam or the East end? I'd love to take my 4 year old son out there!

There is no free time for kayak fishing....Free time is what is left over AFTER kayak fishing. Your not thinking right.
