Fishing for gills with spinners and caught this huge sunny....didn't have ruler but must have been at least 9.5"....put up a good fight as well. Released it.

take a kid hunting and fishing, it's a lot better than leaving them on the streets!!

"You know when they have a fishing show on TV? They catch the fish and then let it go. They don't want to eat the fish, they just want to make it late for something." - Mitch Hedberg

Took my friend and his wife gill chasin'.  She caught as many on her 18" Ice Blue rod/spring bobber/ice jig as we did on the long rods.  Boat load of fun!

Riverrat loved to share his spinners and his knowledge anything to help someone.

Nice job John...
