I live in Palmetto, Fl. and I am looking for a place(lake or pond) to fish for bluegills. I am a resident of Florida and let's say I am old enough to fish everywhere without a license. I need to catch some eating size gills for the table. I have some restrictions with walking if that will help. Also I have been fly fishing for the last 60 plus years and I tie my own flys, mostly for bluegill fishing. Any help locating some bluegill fishing will be greatly
appreciated. I realize I am asking a lot for any one to give info as to where they catch eating size bluegills.

I can't help you from Delaware, but if you put your location in your profile you will get a better response from people in your area. Welcome to our stage.

Looks like a lot of salt water in your area. Why not find a couple of good fishing piers and get some shrimp and learn how to catch mangrove snapper. Fun to catch and very good eating. In summer you will catch sheepshead around the same piers. Also good eating. You may also catch an occasional pompano or grouper.

Don’t know about your area but a lot of housing developments Around here have ponds that are loaded with big bluegill.
May want to check housing developments and or condo developments. See if they will let you access

Thanks guys for the info. I will give the salt water fishing a try.

Didn't know you could catch snappers this way.....

Yes. I usually just put on a half of a shrimp and fish right on the bottom but I have seen guys using floats and fishing just off the bottom. A piece of cut bait works well too.
