Looking for some panfish action? Lake Como and its associated waterways are brimming with bluegill, offering consistent action for anglers of all skill levels. Spring and early summer, when the bluegill are spawning, are arguably the best times to target them. Look for shallow, weedy areas near the shoreline. Crickets and worms are classic bluegill baits, but small poppers and dry flies can also be incredibly effective, especially during the early morning and late evening hours. A light action rod and reel will make the experience even more enjoyable. Consider exploring the smaller creeks that feed into Lake Como; these can hold some real hidden gems. Remember to keep an eye out for gators, especially in the shallows!
