Bluegill
For some classic bluegill action around Augusta, look no further than the area's numerous ponds, lakes, and slower-moving sections of the Savannah River. These panfish are abundant and relatively easy to catch, making them perfect for a relaxing day on the water. Spring and early summer, during the spawning season, are the best times to target them in the shallows. A simple setup with a small hook, bobber, and worm is all you need. Focus on areas with lily pads, submerged vegetation, or fallen trees. A local trick is to use crickets or grasshoppers for bait – bluegill can't resist them. The Augusta Canal also holds a good population of bluegill. Remember to bring a lightweight rod and enjoy the simple pleasure of catching these feisty little fish.
