Bluegill
If you're looking for some relaxed panfishing action, the waters around River Bend offer excellent opportunities to target bluegill. The Trent and Neuse Rivers, along with their many creeks and ponds, are teeming with these tasty fish. Spring and summer are ideal, especially during the spawning season in late spring when bluegill congregate in shallow, protected areas. Look for them around docks, lily pads, and submerged vegetation. A simple setup of a light rod, small hook, and live bait like worms or crickets is all you need. The canals within River Bend can also hold good numbers of bluegill. A local tip: try using a small popping bug on a fly rod for some exciting topwater action. Bluegill are abundant and relatively easy to catch, making them a great target for anglers of all ages and skill levels.
