Hi Folks,

I'm new to these forums and thought I introduce myself with a few bluegill pictures from this summer.

Thanks,

Bob

Welcome Bob.
I'm not a fisherperson, but the last picture looks extremely appetising.
Yum!

Ahh, some kind of bream.

Thanks Folks,

We had a banner year with the bluegills....pulled 400 out of the ponds. Most are tucked away in the deep freeze for some good winter fare. How did everyone else do with the pan-fish this year?

Welcome bobby.

I've done quite a lot of fishing for blue gills in NYS. They taste divine as do your crappy and perch.

For some reason, there's not many Brits who'll admit to having eaten crappie .

Green Rosie,

PA (Pennsylvania) is in the North Eastern U.S., just below N.Y. State and very close to the Atlantic Ocean. Hershey is where you get those delicious candy bars thanks to Milton Hershey.

Crappie are the best of the best, in my book. They are hard to come by near my home, but if you travel a few hours to Lake Erie....there supposed to be a lot.
