Here's an easy way to make a bunch of those Panfish, disappear in no time. :drool:
2 lb. Fresh Bluegill Fillets.... Just Mix in the Batter (ingredients below) and fry in Cast Iron Frying Pan of Canola Oil and enjoy!
(Beats "Shrimp on the Barbie" any day). :chuckle:
1/8 tsp curry powder
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp lemon pepper
2 or 3 shakes Tabasco hot sauce
3-4 cups self-rising corn meal
1/2 tsp seasoned salt

Fond memories of pulling gills off their beds with my gramps. He could not be bothered with bass, pike, or any other fish, as they were a waste of time. We had some amazing fish fries.

Bluegill are my favorite fresh water panfish to eat, although I am happy to eat all of them :chuckle:
And catch! Pound for pound they are hard to beat! I sure miss quality bluegill waters.

A Pumpkinseed ! Angry Perch, Are you sure?
I have eaten both Pumpkin Seeds and Watermelon Seeds (accidently, while laughing with my mouth full) aren't Pumpkin Seeds White? That looks more like a Watermelonseed to me. :rolleyes:
Now I have been wrong before and must admit I am still a little "Wet Behind the blueGILLS" when it comes to Fish Identification. ;)

Are there any smaller lakes on the west side with these guys? A place a guy with an inflatable raft might be able to go(or bank fish for that matter?)
This post has got me yearning for a fish fry.

Three of us spent the better part of an afternoon filleting and cleaning the mess of blue gills and sun perch the kids caught. They were thrilled to death to get to eat the fish they caught. Some of those things wouldn't have made a good minnow, but we scaled them and filleted them every one. Lot of fun.
I haven't eaten bluegills in forever. They we the only fish my grandpa would fish for or eat. He'd scale them, gut them, and head them, then fry them up. So good!
