I enjoy fishing for Gills and Redears. I won't clean over 20, and I do not keep large males. I live in NW Indiana and I was hooked on fishing Lake Michigan at one point, but the cost of that type of fishing in a boat, and 9/11 reducing the good spots fishing from the US Steel break wall stopped it all for me. I have a little puddle jumper and get it out no problem in smaller lakes and chase gills and once in awhile eyes.
