Went out this A M to take the kayak trailer off the car and thought might as well try Laurel Hill. So down the road I went....persistence paid off. Got into some really nice Gils and plenty of them. Most of the fish were Bull Gills....dark and colored up pretty and between 8 and 9 inches. Caught some females...most of them at the 9 inch mark...they are usually longer but don't have the girth or fight the males do. Caught about a dozen Red ear at the 10 inch mark. Got into a couple of females....the smaller Red Ear pic. The males are really bright while the females less so. Had to paddle to find these fish. The water was pretty clear and actually found beds in about 12 feet of water. Glad I went today as they will fertilize next week and it will be like pea soup after that. These fish really fought hard....made for a lot of fun on the UL. One of my better days so far this year down there.
