Nine and ten inch bluegill on a fly rod

The first two lakes were a bust, but third lake produced some huge Bluegill. It was a long day, but it turned out great. Huge bluegill.

I live in Japan. In Japan, fly fishing is mostly trout fishing, and few people use flies to catch bass or bluegills, but I enjoy it very much. I also enjoy fly tying after watching your videos! I learned fly fishing from the staff of Tiemco, a Japanese fishing tackle manufacturer. Thank you for the great video!!

Great day and big gills... definitely worth unloading the boat a third time !!! Take Care

15:33 had me uncontrollably laughing. That's the best accidental camera angle of a fish anyone catch that!!??

That is where the fun begins, when you are rigged light, and you hook into a heavy weight. Playing a big fish in is the pinnacle of fishing pleasure as far as I am concerned. Really enjoy your channel. Thanks for making these great videos.

I love using my 7'6" Orvis 2wt.. Since I fish from shore and often have to navigate brush, what do you think about using longer Euro Nymphing rods for bluegill?

Is your boat light enough to pick up and slide.into the truck bed or have you contrived some method to make it easier on the back?
