Finally found some decent sized gills...

Had a pretty good evening on the lake the other day. Wound up with about 35 nice bluegills and a few small bass. I wish I have of thought to lay something beside the bream to give an idea of how big they were. I measured a few of them and they were around 10", for around here that is a nice bream. Good eating for sure!!!

Very nice Ronnie! And some good chewing
How big were the bass? Were not allowed to keep anything under 14"

Bass were about 12" and some lakes here in SC don't even have a size limit on them. These came out of a private lake anyway, a lake that is full of small bass. Way to many of them, trying to thin down the heard some. Give room for the rest to grow, the biologist that keeps a track on the fish in this lake told everyone to start keeping the small fish.

They look like big gills.  A few nice meals right there!
And I'd rather eat those 12" bass instead of 18" bass.  That goes for most fish I catch - fillets off just legal sized stripers, flounder, smallies, smaller bluefish, etc. all seem better than the big fish of the species.
