[VFB] Quote 041011
The one great ingredient in successful fly-fishing is patience. The mans whose fly is always on the water has the best chance. There is always a chance of a fish or two, no matter how hopeless it looks. You never know what may happen in fly-fishing.

This is a cold-water reservoir frozen all winter long, with trout and carp living in it. I've caught 1000s of bluegills (grew up in the south), so I recognized it immediately. It was a big bull and almost black in color. Had the gill plates, but only could tell by the flap-shape, since the colors were so dark. What he was doing in that cold lake I'll never know, but he was surviving. Took a lot of fish out of there on flies and never caught another 'gill and never heard of another being caught. BTW, the GF Dept. poisoned that lake to kill the carp and make it a trout lake. It's a pure carp lake now. Way to go, GF. I also used to catch bluegills in a pond north of Belfield, N. Dakota. It was a large farm pond, and the bluegills were all monsters and would take bass bugs readily. So although bluegills are classified as warm-water panfish, I have caught them in cold northern waters.

Re: [VFB] Neville, bluegills
Neville,The bass here in BC were introduced many years ago into select lakes ponds and are not native. Some have been stocked illegally. The BC Fish Wildlife Department are opposed to the introduction of bass and will remove them if they can. It is only along the Canada/USA border area that bass may be found in BC. The black crappie is native but this is the upper limit of their range and they don’t grow to any size.

Re: [VFB] Neville, bluegills
Neville,Yep.. And even in Japan, the Emperor I think it was, years ago, was given some bluegills, and he accidently turned them loose in some of the Japanese waters, and the bluegills did soo good, that they just weeded out other native species of fish there. I'm not exactly sure when it happened, but I think He made an official apology I think in 1960. They can live in water that has half the oxygen of other sunfish, bass etc. They can live in brackish waters. They can live in water that is either colder or hotter than other species of warm water fish. Around here, you can build a pond, and not stock a single bluegill, and in a few years, it will be full cause even the eggs live so good that birds pick them up on their feet, boaters pick them up on their boat and/or trailers, and then transfer them from one lake to another. And if you ask me, they fight more, pound per pound, ounce per ounce, than just about anything that swims. Heck, I have a cousin who had a 50 gallon aquarium and put two in there several years ago, and I bet they weigh nearly a pound each now. I joke with her that I'm gonna brink my fly rod and try out her aquarium LOL. She even has a few in her gold fish pond in her back yard and in wintertime, along with the goldfish, thought the ice, you can see the bluegill swimming around like crazy. Chuck I need to finish writing the bluegill book I started LOL. - Original Message - From: Webb, Gary To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Sent: Monday, April 11, 2011 8:42 AM Subject: RE: [VFB] Neville, bluegills also in several Canadian Provinces.
