Using official Walmart live chartreuse worms while fishing off the Inks Lake State Park fishing pier, I caught some really large bluegill. Whoppers. And they wouldn’t bite anything else but those chartreuse worms.

Lake X, Lake XX, and Lake XXX !  Lake XXX is that the lake where the fish are scaleless?
