  • BLUEGILL Fishing The Bottom Of a River [Catch, Cook] Hooked This GIANT Fish!!
    In this video I was fishing the bottom of a river for some bluegill bream, I was using red worms and chicken liver for bait. My first cast out into the river didn't set very long before my first bluegill was hooked up. I threw out several more times after that and caught fish every time, unfortunately they were all small size fish and I released them. I decided to move to a new location along the riverbank and it didn't take long before I started catching a variety of fish and several eating size fish that I put into my ice cooler. Suddenly my fishing line took off on my bigger fishing rod, I waited a few seconds and I set the hook on a Giant River fish; it took all I could do to hold my fishing rod and wear the giant down. After a short battle I landed the fish and was able to get a measurement before safely releasing the battle tested river giant back into the river. By the end of the fishing trip, I had enough fish to bring home and cook up for dinner. #bluegill #fishfry #stompindirt

      I almost always fillet my bluegill and Crappie because it's just easier than dealing with the bones, but my absolute favorite way to eat them (especially bluegill) is to simply scale, gut and fry them immediately in a pan without breading of any kind. Just salt, pepper and sometimes a little bit of green onions or some Cajun seasoning. Best tasting fish there is, IMO. Just a whole different flavor, texture and juiciness than the traditional fillet or whole fry with breading. Sometimes I don't even cut off the heads, because there is a lot of tasty meat there as well. Like I said, I don't do it often, and it's usually when I just want to catch 3-4 to just have a small meal, but it's always a treat.

      @@dantefrierson5797 as a kid, we used canned biscuit dough, panfish really liked it. It was cheap bait, not so much nowadays. Give it a try, you can also mix some cotton in for carp and catfish bait. Never thought about liver and biscuits, but it sounds good especially if you got gravy to go with it.
