Inland Sea panfish! June is the time to fish for panfish (blue gill, pumkinseed and yellow perch). They are near shore by the gazillion?
At the Grand Isle town beach I used my fly rod to catch and release a hundred panfish. A commercial fisherman used bobber and worm next to me and left with a huge cooler of fish headed to a buyer. I came back the next morning and found a few less fish but more than enough to catch one on almost every cast. I quit when a 12 yr. old boy asked how he could catch them. He had a rod so I gave him a small bobber and 1/16th ounce jig and a box of crawlers, left over from carp fishing. When I left he was keeping his dad busy releasing panfish and replacing crawlers?
