Searched for some sort of guide because I was the only fisherman in the US that never actually fished for or caught a bluegill.
This book on Amazon certainly had the right title, so I bought and read it, ebayed some suggested flies, went out to a beautiful reservoir, caught a bunch of bluegill and ate them.
This is an informal and informative little book with beautiful illustrations and mostly decent photos. It does focus mostly on the south and lower midwest. The north and west are, I think, a little different, but still the advice is good and the author's passion undeniable.
This book was very helpful in its description of how to tie a Bully Spider, the primary reason I bought the book. For this information alone, I felt the book was worth its price.
The balance of the book was interesting, informative, and fun to read.
I rated it a 4 instead of a 5 because I am new to tying flies and a more complete description of some other fly ties, perhaps a sample from several types, would have been appreciated.
However, once I landed a 12 inch bluegill on a fly rod, I was hooked! (bad pun, but I couldn't resist) I decided to learn more about targeting the larger fish and this book helped me increase the average size of bluegill I bring in. These things put up a great fight on light tackle.
Please give some consideration to catch and release.
