Long Lake Missaukee Co., a lake we know pretty well, in the middle of the afternoon about 2pm I went out with my two daughters and my youngest who caught a 15 inch Largemouth Bass in her first cast but we could see some nice Bluegill, too. So, I put on a #1 Black Fury plain single hook and on the third cast, Bam! I thought I caught a Bass as it hit so hard on a pole with light line, but was amazed by the fight this 8" Bluegill gave. It was a little over an inch thick. Thanks Mepps for making some awesome lures that make my daughters love to fish as much as I do and with the results, who can blame them.
