This blog post will include my experience with these fish, and facts about it so enjoy.

These blue gill are very common at my lake, so it’s not that exciting when someone catches one. I have caught many of them but most of them are small like for example this is one my brother caught, it’s pretty small but they are not able to be use for live bait to catch fish like bass and other fish. It’s a fish that you usually catch then throw back in the water. I love to catch fish so you can’t believe how happy I was to catch my first little fish, it was small but I was still really happy. Fun fact: Bluegill fish, with the scientific name of Lepomis macrochirus, is one of the most common freshwater fishe. They can be found inhabiting in all types of freshwater bodies and are easy to catch. They come in varied colors ranging from yellow to dark blue. Well at least you didn’t interrupt me but blue gill; fun fact: the Bluegill is originally from the water around the United States and Mexico; but later on was repopulated in other areas of the world. GOSH DAMNIT, right when I said you didn’t interrupt me, but here you are interrupting me. Anyways blue gills are really good food, they should taste amazing, but I haven’t tried it yet. I have search for info about it and what I found made me even want to try it even more, what I found was that blue gill are the tastiest fresh water fish I wanted to eat one every day but to catch a big one to is very hard like very hard. Anyway time to tell my story with these fish.

This is the time my brother and I caught a blue gill. My brother and I just moved into a house that has a lake in front of it, but the cool thing is this lake have no alligators so we can swim in it. I was still scared to swim, but I built up the courage to. I wanted to fish so we got the fishing rods. When we started fishing, I knew it would take a while to at least get a nibble, but my dad still tried. I found nets and tried to catch little fish call minnows, I caught many but not good enough to use for live bait to catch bass. My dad said my brother and me should try to put bread on the bait and a lot of small or big fish could eat it and get hoked so I tried it, but first I need bread and the bread we have is not cheap, so we went to the store to get some bread. After we got the bread I used it right away, at first I didn’t get any fish but I saw a lot eating my bread. I was still fishing until I heard my brother scream and said “I got a fish I got a fish” I ran toward him and I saw a little fish on the ground, but there was one thing we had to do before releasing it, we had to dehook it and I didn’t know how dehook it and my brother didn’t know how to so my dad dehooked it, and my brother set it free. A little bit later I caught one, yes I did I was so happy, after my dad dehooked it my mom took a picture. After we got back inside, my dad told my brother to search up what type of fish we caught, and we found out the fish that we caught was called a blue gill and it is ranked number 1 good tasting fresh water fish, so I really wanted to catch a big one so I could try it.
