Hey Rocky! Doing good fishing I see. I use to fish with them green worms with a stinger like thing on their back. They smell an amazing to fish bluegills with. Anyway good to watch you buddy! Enjoy watching your videos man! Keep them coming.
Years ago me an my boys caught a bunch . Got a water bottle poked holes in it so they could breath out the lid on it an placed in fridge. Went fishing but put them in the cooler . When ur ready to fish place them in the sun or outdoors an they will come back alive ! Un screw the cap on the water bottle an they will crawl out . Easy ! Country boy can survive man . Loved the video.
I have been wanting to catch some to fish with. The funny thing is i live in higher elevation on a TN mountain and here around the house there isn't any. I can go to town and drop off of the mountain and you can hear them all over the place. I don't know why that is.
That’s more fun than picking your nose, ain’t it Rocky? Haha! Me and my Dad did that similar thing at a reservoir over in Richmond Ky, lake Wilgreen, but we went over there to bluegill fish and started seeing those same type of cicadas over all the top of the water and fish were popping everywhere, so we got us a few of them and started catching bigger Gills and bass, those cicadas don’t get as big as some types but the fish sure love em, I think it might be something to do with the color of them, they got that orange on them, my opinion that helps attract the fish, some. Anyhow, good deal Rock! 👍👍🤙🏻
I can't remember the TV fishing guy, but he used to say, "Catch a four pound bream on a two pound cricket". The pet shop people always ask why I need 4 dozen crickets and I say for Bluegill of course.
Great fishing show watch everyone you have produced just move here from Okeechobee trying to learn YOU way to catch fish love fishing with shinners in Florida would like to meet you and pick your brain
Thanks Allen If you ever see me out on the water fishing please come over and say hello. I’ll be in a red Ranger 188 boat with a Yamaha motor we can talk fishing 🎣 I appreciate you watching my videos 🎣🎣
I had heard folks was frying them up and eating them. I’m gonna stick to honey buns and corn dogs 😊 Thanks for your comment and I appreciate you watching
@@RockyDrakeOutdoors no problem and I'm call your man card it's one bug Battered, whatever way you want iv eatin junebug grubs b4 them deepfried tast like banana pudding you got to come to the dinner table with an Empty stomach and an open mind.
Allen again where is a good place to take my wife fishing with shinners not wanting to know your honey hole on guntersville for Friday ball park area Enjoyed watching your videos video
I bet you got your hands full with those big bluegill on a fly rod. I might try to do a video with a fly rod for bluegill 🎣🎣 Thanks for your comment James I appreciate it 🎣🎣
@@RockyDrakeOutdoors In the Spring when the bulls are patrolling the spawning grounds any floating dry fly like a Caddis or hopper will get hammered! On a 5W ? Lol ! It’s like learning how to fish all over again!
Cicadas and helgramites are fish candy. Literally everything eats them. If you can't catch fish on cicadas, tou news to question your choice of hobbies.
Rocky..... Your videos are getting shorter and shorter and averaging maybe 1 a week. That AIN'T gonna cut it HOSS! You know better.... Now, start putting some real effort into these videos and start posting 3 per week minium.
Thats why you got big gills takes thim 5 years to get big with the right kind of food up to 10 inches and bigger thats why i release all the bigones lots of fun to catch when you find thim
You are absolutely correct You can’t keep every big bluegill you catch if want the big ones in your pond or lake. I’ll only keep three or four for my dad to eat. Thanks for your comment 🎣🎣
Good Blue Gill !

It doesn't take much effort to watch a video , compared to the effort and time from one's private life to edit and make a video.
I’ll try to make longer 😊
I do appreciate your comment 🎣🎣
You told me you were thinking of using those cicadas!
Nice bluegill! Fun video!
You want real fish bait use catalpa worms.
