Bluegill
If you're looking for some quality bluegill action in Central Texas, Lake Whitney near Whitney is a fantastic option. This sprawling reservoir on the Brazos River offers ample shallow coves and weed beds that provide ideal habitat for bluegill. Spring is prime time, as the fish move into the shallows to spawn, but you can find them throughout the summer and fall as well. Try fishing around submerged brush piles or docks with crickets, worms, or small jigs. A local tip: the coves on the eastern side of the lake, accessible from several park areas, tend to hold good numbers of bluegill. The bluegill in Lake Whitney are known to be relatively large, with some reaching upwards of a pound, making it a rewarding experience for anglers of all skill levels. Be prepared for some competition from other anglers and recreational boaters, especially on weekends.
