Micro Fishing for GIANT Bluegills @Eastman Lake w/Meng FishAholics JUNE 2019

early morning Meng and I set off for an adventure to San luis reservoir for striper fishing, halfway to SLR we call the front office to check wind conditions, found out the lake was close to boating due to heavy wind, so we turn the car around and decided to fish at eastmen lake, only arm with trolling rods and atlas rigs, meng decided that we should visit the local wal mart to buy ourself some new pan fish rod and other gears for our last minute new adventure!!!

You guys did great! Those micro lite rods are great for the money but eventually the rod guides groove up since they are cheap stainless. I use daiwa spinmatics or fenwick river runners these days; same rods I use for trout. I've been scoring a few 'gills at local ponds on ultralight gear. One of my favorite techniques in shallow ponds is throwing weightless red worms or mealies with #8-10 baitholders on 2 lb test. and letting them fall on bedding fish. I've caught 60 in two hours that way but nothing in terms of size like what you guys have there.

The slingshots are decent usually like 10-$20 with decent line I think they r zebcos. They r worth every penny
