Spawning Bluegills

(1/1)

The Rocket:
I've read a lot that spawning Blugills bite the best the day after and the day before the first full moon of the spawn.  there are 2 diferent full moon phases this spring. One in a few days
and one on May 4th. Will the full moon on the 4th be by best bet. I plan to be in Missouri
so I will be in Bluegill country. Thanks

i agree with you bob ,blues can really be aggressive when there guarding there nest.,the only thing i see that effects them is if there is a sudden water temp.change during this time of year,but you never know the moon place a big part in alot of thing. one thing i know that hurts the fishing for sure is pressures ,high pressures suck ,lows are good.bill
