Bluegill
For some relaxing bluegill action near Huntersville, NC, head to Lake Norman or some of the smaller ponds and creeks in the area. Bluegill are abundant and readily take a variety of baits and lures. Spring and early summer are excellent times to target spawning bluegill in shallow, weedy areas. Use small hooks baited with worms, crickets, or mealworms under a bobber. Fly fishing with small poppers or nymphs can also be highly effective. As the water warms, bluegill move to deeper water near submerged structure. A local tip: Try fishing around docks and piers in the early morning or late evening for the best results. Also, be aware of the presence of other species, such as bass and crappie, which may also be attracted to your bait. The bluegill in Lake Norman are generally good-sized, providing enjoyable fishing for anglers of all ages and skill levels. Remember to practice catch and release to help maintain the population.
