Personally, I would never turn up my nose at a properly fried perch,
but I like bluegill and their close cousins much better. And there's
billions of them left around here.....and they're easy.....and they are
SO much fun on a fly rod!

We live about two minutes from a small lake filled with bluegills. No better
way to teach a small child to fish than to put them on top of a million
'gills that will eat anything offered. My son loves to fish bluegills. His
dad gets tired of cleaning them, but they too fry up into a pretty good
meal. And Wolfgang is right, bluegills are by far the most fun, and I would
argue that they put up a pretty impresive fight for their size.
