We have had the bluegill vs bass discussion here before. I interviewed
a fisheries biologists about that - he was not aware of any studies of
which is stronger, but said based on his knowledge and experience a
bass will outpull a bluegill the same size. I wrote and article on it
if anyone is interested in details.


It's a different pull, and fight,, at least it is to me, the blue gills
seam faster, as they cut back and forth, the bass is a little stronger
but not near the speed in their cuts.

I catch a lot of bass and bream at the same time, on the same rod and
lures, usually a 9 1/2 foot steel head rod from St Croix, that long rod
shows bend differences a lot better than a stiffer short one. I can
always tell if it is a bass or a big bream, before I see the fish on
that rod
