Bluegill
For bluegill enthusiasts, Peterstown, West Virginia, offers plenty of opportunities in the region's ponds, creeks, and slower sections of the New River. These waters provide a diverse habitat for bluegill, resulting in a healthy and accessible fishery. Spring and summer are the best times to target bluegill, as they move into shallower water to spawn. Look for them near weed beds, submerged logs, and other structure. A simple worm and bobber rig is often all you need to catch plenty of bluegill. A helpful tip: many local ponds are on private property, so always ask for permission before fishing. Also, try using small jigs or artificial flies for a more challenging and rewarding experience. The bluegill in this area tend to be relatively small to medium-sized, but their abundance makes for a fun and relaxing fishing experience, especially for families and beginner anglers. Remember to practice catch and release to help maintain the health of the bluegill population.
