Bluegill Spawn!

For me this week the better areas on all three lakes that I fish lately are where you find good concentrations of dragonflies working the waters. Both bass and the spawning bluegill are feasting on them. This pattern is best very early in the morning time till maybe mid morning. The topwater bite will last as long as the dragonflies are there. Dust off your favorite topwater lure or for the fly fishing fun tie on a small popper, boobie fly or Gurgler pattern and a 5wt rod to have a lot of fun fishing. Water temperatures are creeping into the 80’s by mid day but with the high temperatures that are predicted for this coming week, it won’t be long until we see 90 degree waters. Early on and early off the waters will be our norms for the summer.
