Caught a few BIG bluegill on Travis on the old standby - nightcrawlers! What’s your go-to bait for perch?

Nightcrawler #1 bait!! Only time I catch bluegill is to use them for catfish bait. Those big ones are fantastic!!

Well....when i'm fishing for perch.....I like to use an ice fishing jig and wax worms....or a small 1/16 jig head and half a crawler. For bluegill.....because they are two different species of fish....well I pretty much use the same thing
Thank you Lord for the gifts in my life

For bluegill.....because they are two different species of fish....well I pretty much use the same thing I use the jig set up with a slip bobber sometimes, works great! I just call them all perch or bluegill tho

Nice Gills. Enjoyed the video. Side Note: A couple of years ago was fishing Travis during January. Was with two friends. We caught a bunch of nice Bluegill suspended in 20 feet of water by a dock. Travis has some very nice Bluegill!
