I went bluegill fishing with a friend on Saturday, and we saw some guys catching (what I assume were spawning) fish up shallow. We were whacking them by slow trolling out in deep water (20'+), so we never bothered to check closer in. The previous Saturday we caught almost all females out deep, so maybe a lot of the males were up shallow on beds? Some of the females had partially developed eggs. The spinner bite has been great the past couple trips!
