I was out on my friends boat fishing for Bass and we were catching Sunnies and Blue Gills off of Bass Hooks and brushhogs! We thought we were getting hits from bass but it was the panfish bite the entire time come to find out. It was my first time on Dunlap and eventhough it was slow it was a great little spot to catch a varity.
 Airborne All The Way!

Thanks "JWK" for the reply.  Dunlap is one heck of a lake. Hopefully you will get a chance to fish it several more times before you move.

Thanks "Drrouter" for the reply!  I plan to hit the Salado Creek very soon. The Rios should be heavy there as well!

Congrats on those nice fish. Pound for pound which would be the better fighter Blue Gill or Rio?

Big Bluegill also put up a super fight but it seems a Rio just never stops fighting even when you are taking out the hook!

Thanks "Pop1655" for the reply!  Hopefully you will see some Rio action up in the Kerrville area this year.

Oh well I guess I will have to find out for myself some day
