It's got to be a bluegill

A few days ago I was able to get some more fishing in at Grandma's. I did some yard work in the late afternoon and decided to get the fly rod out. I was using the minnow that I made and had some luck with before. Sure enough I was able to get a bass pretty quickly. I moved over to the far side of the pond and cast out away from the bank to about 10 feet out and let it sink. I got a bite as soon as I stripped it in. Right away I knew it had to be a bluegill. They always use the shape of there tall bodies to apply more pressure and fight than you would ever expect. They also tend to swim toward the shore at an angle. The pond has plenty of bluegill of descent size. This was no exception. It's just the second type of fish I've caught using my own hand-made fly. I hope to make this list a whole lot longer in the near future.
