A Simple Way To Catch Loads Of Bluegill

Wow, good morning friends, I'm Richard Jean, beautiful morning here in Guntersville, it's almost seven in the morning, bit cold, it's about 52 degrees this morning and it's because we had a front the other day, the other day, two days ago , a lot of rain. has come to the Tennessee Valley with a lot of influx of water, the water here at the dam is a little murky, a little murky, but I like that when it comes to fishing for shell cracker

bluegill

s, today we're going to kindly fish what I call the

simple

st way to fish for bread in general, but well, I want to look at those things, they are everywhere, there is one right there, let's see how close we get to it, let's say it eats up here, God, they are ugly, check it out. old man he's going to let me walk towards him the ones that are there in a dumpster the ones that are right there and there's a bunch of them out there I think what they're doing is mating this time of year, you'll see in my set they're bunched up like that, they're ugly as Elmo about that, but they're not going to bother us, stay with me, let's

catch

some of these big

bluegill

s from the Tennessee River, possibly shell crackers, yeah, that'll look ugly on things, ooh, well .

This is just a little bit, that's what I've always heard the walkway called, just a set of steps right here below the dam, well, I don't know how far, that's maybe twenty thousand feet below the place of the dam. prey where I am. I've caught some big old bluegills and a shell cracker. Now the water is high. Everyone can see how high it is here. I'm going to start here at the end of the wall and see what we can do. It's very slippery E right here, but that's the color of the water right there, I like to

catch

it, a big bluegill shell cookie, there's actually a little eddy over here, all that, yeah, you don't have to cast more than 12 to 15 feet here to fish.

I'm going to put my things here here next to this tree and put some water in this bucket and my ideal is to catch some of these and take them home and eat them look there oh my God I'm going to dip some and accuse right there, so there's no doubt about it, but okay, today I'm using an interesting little Ridge here, especially the real people, this is a Garcia Mitchell 408. I've had this real one for about a year and it was told to me by a guy at a garage sale and to a Older guy told him he used this real one about three times and he was looking for the box it came in, so it's basically a new reel, but it's a Vantage reel, it's kind of like the Mitchell 308 that he featured. a high speed reel is a little faster back in the day it was an ultralight reel and I'm also using a Berkeley equalizer this rod here is about 23 years old something like that as for the line I have 2 pounds Try a high visibility vicious line on the spoon and my rig is just

simple

it's a split shot rig with a little bit of split shot and I'm going to start with a size 8 hook.

I can go to a size 6 and I have this split. I shot about 10 or 11 inches above the hook and today we're going to use red worms, just old red worms, but I'll start by hooking right on the egg sac one like this and one like that and I might just do that and set it and like that, I I like to mount them that way so they look really natural and can move. I'm going to walk right here to the end of the wall. We have a little suede area right here. I just don't go very far, there's probably about six feet of water right there where I put the bait, six, seven feet of water.

I didn't get it back, it was a little small, I don't know. I don't know if it's small or not, from the beginning it feels like a damn good fish, here it is. I want everyone to look at pumpkin seed from the beginning and it's not a beautiful fish, it's not as big as my hand, but it's almost like a botanist, it's a beautiful fish, let's put it in the bucket. What I'm going to do is bring my stuff, put it there and fish at the end of that wall, don't you think? That was a lot. faster and I thought it would be my God, let's put it on that beautiful fish, don't go hitting it okay, let's try one right there, first bite, yeah, my, my, my, this one is good, this is the kind that is here.

I think so, look at that, you want hot tea, you want, it's a lot of fun, just let the bait bounce around there past those little rocks and all of a sudden, boom, there's a nice fish right there that's got a lot of purple. It does it now, but it won't be long, it will turn brown, everyone knows what I mean, it's a beautiful fish, let's put it in the bucket, I have to put it in the bucket now, I have to take care of that blue heron right there because What he'll do is they're brave around here two down they'll take the fish out of your bucket if you don't look closely, there's nothing there and he's a better fisherman than me, but they're greedy, oh.

Yo, what a beautiful day, let's get back up here now. I got up on a size six hook right here. I think the greats are here. You know, in my opinion, now you can put on too much weight if I had a really heavy weight. Right there I would have been left hanging, but it's still responsible. Alton, but reduce your chances by using as much light as possible. In my opinion, for fish, it is good. He didn't think I felt like you chose him. up, but I did, I seen the hive is lying, twitch, it's a baby, that's the guy we want right there, I saw a mega dog, monkey nose, right there, man, you talk about fight, they're all Hey, they're everything you want to hit. line and a little bit of current oh I don't want to lose it, it's big, yeah, now there's a man right there and I've got him in a good place, right there in the mouth, now all for split shot, come someone else. let's put it in the bucket now I don't put a bucket full of my color up there oh well, I leave it, it's too good I eat and I let it go, that's a big one, get in there, oh man, look at it in my mind now, that's good one them I will say that for its size there is not a fish, I bet I know it can fight like these things, another big one, I tell you why not, people with split shot equipment are hard to beat, especially in a situation like this, the real. very light light fish if you want to have a lot of fun here in my opinion, but I want you to look at his big fish, let's put it in the bucket and catch it, you know, here we go, oh, I can't tell everyone. how these things fight a little cloudy here I hope you're not fixing the rain 'cause I show having fun yeah, what a blue fish, what a blue fish, it's not happy, look, there's nothing but thick, dirty and good for me. in a bucket: how good, friends, how good to look at a 30-minute bucket.

I've been catching about four or five putting them on my butt like this so they don't get ruined. It's so good to eat, I just had to make myself cum. I don't burn the truck right there, ugly as Elmer, I'm leaving, I'm dreaming, you know, I'm leaving here, I think there are records everywhere here, they're going to think there are, but Oh, I, I, I, I. Say it's good, no, no, you don't want to give up, don't look here? Another mule. Tennessee River Mule. You can tell when you set the hook on one of these. You can tell he has it.

Like I said, I've been catching a lot of small ones, but it's just that with this true art of light tackle, it feels like you've stuck my hook into a rock. Now come in, but let me show you what we have, let's clean up. Put them on this truck here and look, I have some there, they're Goodings too, but they always bring the worm weed. I tell you there was some goodness and you talk about good food and I need to say a special thank you. to Douglas who lives in Livingstone of Lerna Illinois and he made me a cup of coffee or you can put coke in it or whatever you want, it's like a Yeti except it's handmade, the word you can put your name on it for a special loved one and remember Go fishing when you can because it's good for you.

He sent this to the channel because he said he liked the channel and otherwise, thank you all so much for watching the great comments, you know, I keep saying that every time. but I don't know what else to say, everything you've done for this channel, hey, and the most important part of all this is to go out here, enjoy yourself, forget about everything that's bad, just to take care of a lot of stress for anyone. because fishing is, in my opinion, an unbeatable sport and a shitload of history.
