Slabs from the "Kings of Fayette"! Steve, You Sir have had one SUPER year on that lake! Good job guys! Side Note: Houston got hammered from that tropical system. They were forecast do get 12" of rain.

Mega Dittos on the "doesn't get any better" ! Awesome day with Steve on the Queen of perch lakes. Great hospitality and fellowship, and great fishing. Steve kept us on fish all day. Seasoned with a little rain shower now and then. My first day of using Gulp Minnows exclusively. Amazing artificial bait for perch. I also tried some Berkley PowerBait May Fly nymphs. They turned their nose up on that. We both had our cameras going today. A day of diverse light conditions with the rain and clouds coming in and out. A lot of beauty on that lake. Can't wait to go again !
You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free

Thanks Banker, Laker & Osborne for the replies...It has been a great year on Fayette.
Gar...I got your jigs yesterday & plan on giving them a try next time out. They are smaller in person than they look like in photos. I am hoping I can cast them with 4 lb test line. Will try the reed beds mostly...don't want to lose them in the trees. They look like really quality jigs...Thank you
Doc...Let me know if u plan to go next week & maybe we can meet up on the water...took the boat in this morning and they fixed my shut off problem...no charge

Vogey, great pictures and great fish. I picture a large, old, wise bluegill sitting at the base of one of those trees, surrounded by a school of young bluegill, each with a hole in their lip, telling them the story of being the only bluegill in Fayette to have never been caught by you.

Thank you sir! 4lb is what we have to use to cast them because they are so tiny

JohnF67...That better be a 2 pounder at the base of that tree...and she aint home free just yet !
Thanks for the reply Pot Licker.
gar1970...I went out in the yard yesterday & tried casting the "tiny jig" with the 4lb test fluorocarbon & it didn't go very far. I am going to try fishing it below a crappie rattlin popping bobber. The water you fish looks like a rocky stones bottom, but Fayette is various grasses & mossy stuff, so I think if I can keep it just above that stuff it might work. Will try it next week...
