Bluegill
If you're looking for some fun, fast-paced bluegill action, Ellsworth, Kansas, has several ponds and lakes that are brimming with these panfish. Kanopolis Reservoir also holds a good population. Spring and early summer, during the spawning season, are when these fish are most easily accessible in the shallows. Look for nesting colonies in protected coves and near submerged vegetation. A simple bobber and worm setup is classic and effective, but small jigs and insect imitations can also produce great results. Ellsworth City Lake and other smaller community lakes are often overlooked but can provide consistent action. The bluegill in this area are generally of decent size, making for a rewarding fishing experience. A practical tip: try using polarized sunglasses to spot the bluegill beds more easily in clear water, increasing your chances of a quick limit. Remember to check local regulations regarding creel limits.
