One of my favorite times of the year when bank fishing. Bed fishing! First one showed up today at my local puddle. The clue was seeing bluegill in mass, tight groups hanging out as I was walking up. Put the ol eye scopes on and found him. 3lb male (at least I think it was male) to start the season. (and red eyes that the Pic doesn't show)
