Sorry Steve, maybe you were ready for bed:Envious:

Jess ranch has some toad bluegill you might try there.

[Sublime-Steve]

LOL oops... yea still perris I say... shore or boat it can be amazing hit up the marina for redear and bluegill on crickets or red worms

[FISHINGBEE]

Jess Ranch for sure summer time June. Bluegills avg 1 and 2 lbs no joke. Some bigger plus lots of bass to go with it. Jigs work well esp on beds. Worms meal worms crickets. The local pond also has same size bluegills also try ponds out.

At Jess Ranch don't you have to keep EVERYTHING you catch, including Bluegill (no catch & release)? And if so, what is their limit on the Bluegill? Can't imagine having to keep 5 or 10 little Bluegill...

It's just the trout that you have to keep 'Jeff'.

I would vote for Perris in a boat or on shore.

Perris lake for size. DVL fish taste better. I think that water quality and what fish eat has a lot to do with taste.

[Fishzilla]

Yup big blue gill at Jess ranch they fight hard also when you go in the lake on your right side there is a drain toss meal worms few feet away from the tall weed/grass and that's where I get them lots fat bass there also cant use crickets at Jess ranch now that sucks

DVL has the biggest Bluegill....even though I'm a LMB guy I have caught some monsters out of DVL. All 2-3 pounders............And you are right they taste really good but you have to fillet them. They are really thick........The redears are bigger at Perris.........

[FISHINGBEE]

Found some gulp crickets bet they will work as well if not better. The gulp baits work real well for me

Perris is my favorite for numbers of big gills, but the biggest ones I've seen came out of Skinner.
