Ditto.

When you see gar on the top water like that the oxygen level in the lake is really low. Just like when the catfish are floating to the top dead. ThE levels are really low. After a while you’ll see carp floating dead as well. The summer heat really depletes the oxygen levels in the waters this time of year.

Bluegill are my favorite fish to catch and my favorite fish to eat and that cane pole fishing brought back a whole lot of childhood memories. LFG is a true fisherman, no hype or bs from this guy.

I remember when I was a boy, my Southern grandma took us kids to her friend's backyard pond to catch a whole mess of bluegill, then we went back to her house and she fileted them all out with the skin still on. She saved all the tails and fins and fried them up along with the filets. I'll tell you what, I still dream about those fins and tails and how we all fought over them once we tasted them for the first time.

Never filleted a blue gill. The bones are so easy to avoid.

Jason, try your Bluegill fry using 50/50 mix of McCormick's fish fry mix and McCormick's cajun, have fed hundreds with this mix and everyone absolutely loves it. Up here in Tn, Bluegills are my #1 summer target fish, so wonderful to eat, and everyone loves the taste.

That's amazing that gar likes you.

Man you sure brighten up my day, it's so wonderful watching you fish with that old pole and bobber. Just like I did when I was a kid. Enjoying the simple things in life, even those little but tasty looking morsels of bluegill. Don't have to be giants to be delicious and so much fun. Thank you so much, bless you and your family.

LFG...my hats off to you brother. Your videos are unique and always keep us guessing. Keep up the good work. 👍

i’ve always cooked bluegill whole a little tip when you scale them use a teaspoon it makes a little less of a mess and makes it easy

This is how we cooked them growing up lol I don’t think I’ve ever fillet a brim lol but it sounds good

Great video! My grandmother from Shreveport would fish gills out of caddo lake and fry the whole mess for dinner. She'd be in a little jon boat with a paddle all day to bring food home. The most underrated eating fish there is.

“Eat the fin for xtra calcium” 😂. Rackley is freakin awesome!

I’ve done tons of bluegill like that but instead of frying them I like wrapping them in foil with tons of butter and ol bay and throw them in a fire

Great video. Keep em coming

Nice video well done great . brings back memories of hours upon hours of cleaning our catch at the end of a days fishing.

That’s the only way we eat bluegills in South Georgia. Bread them bad boys in corn meal and deep fry them.

Nobody should ever underestimate the ability of a water bobber and a fly. It’s easily my favorite thing to catch bluegill. That and bluegill fishing is extremely underrated nowadays and just hate it. They’ll hit anything that they can see. Period

The gar petting was amazing!!! I have never see someone be able to just reach out a pet one. Regular white bread balled up and squished on a hook will catch a mess of bluegill /sunfish too. cheaper than crappie bits. now I know how to descale one and I don't mind picking at my food to eat it (yes I love crawfish) so frying the fish up like that would be fun for me as well. Thank you for this video I really enjoyed it!!

All you’re videos are awesome! Thanks for the positive entertainment! The awesome knowledge you have and information is help to every angler! You have an amazing job, amazing family, and life! God has a special place for you son! Keep it up brother!

A metal spiral currycomb, usually used for brushing horses, is an amazing descaling tool.

I remember growing up and my grandpa having fish fries with a ton of gill. Haven't had them in forever, I will be frying some up this weekend

Awesome man, I've been trying to figure out how to do bluegills without a fliet. Looks delicious

Floridian here we just gut, de-head and descale. Fry up with some grits and fresh corn. Crispy tails are the best. Delish!

The crispy fins are the best part man you can’t miss those!! Little fish chips they are amazing

Need more catch and cooks ! Great job ,caught monsters just the other day butterflied um all !

Dude. The fins and tail on gills and the tail on channels has always been one of my favorite parts. Nice little crunchy fish chips. Tasty as hell.

Dude, you must love your chickens. Giving them the best bite of a female ‘gill. My grandfather (born in 1907) taught me to fry those bigger roe sacs right alongside the fillets. Absolutely delicious.

Hey i noticed your using your first fishing pole when you were younger thats awesome. I never went fishing when I was younger I never had anyone to take me. I fell in love with fishing on my own and now I can't get enough. But I never tried eating any bass or blue gill or crappie I normally just bought my catfish from HEB.

When you said ap flour i was thinking of ap bassing. Hahah got a good laugh after you said what it was

You had me at crispy collector lol

Kickass video! \m/ New fan over here! :) Cheers from Norway.

Love your channel. Awesome . Cant wait to get a jon boat

Whoooo! Lake Fork viddles!!!!!!! I’m hungry now going to munch!

Another option: Growing up Southwestern Colorado our favorite fish to eat was trout and bluegill. We scaled them (except Brooks), removed entrails and gills (left the heads). If you are squeamish about the head they make a good handle. We had a Dutch oven we would get the oil really hot, spread the fish open so it cooks on the inside and out. In less than a minute they are so crispy you can eat everything. Love you stuff. Thank you.
