I've been a saltwater fisherman for most of my life and now I'm trying to learn how to catch.
Any advice for catching bluegills in VA or WVA?

Light line, small bobber, small hook baited with a red worm, find a little brush near the edge of the water. And hook-em. then you put him on a big hook , heavy line and throw a tightline, and wait for that big shovelhead. most important , have fun and enjoy the day.

Welcome Annie, bluegills like weed edges, piers and other cover as they are hiding from other things that enjoy eating them 😉. Other fools have covered the bait, hooks and presentation, so you should be set. They are delicious...Good luck!

Annie you need , a 6.0 penn with a stout trolling rod . These blue gill pound for pound can pull a John Deere sideways . Oh Boy ! Good luck on landing the mighty bluegill.

Oh and because your a female , you might want a two speed international . It will make it a lot easier to reel the big ones in .
