Title: "All of 10 inches"
Post by: Banker on December 30, 2010, 10:55:41 AM: "I have never seen anything that big come out of O'Shaunasee" - Spike
"That thing was all of ten inches" - Dave K
"Would have been a Fish Ohio (11 inches) if it had grown as long as it did thick" - Scott A
This was a massive gill. Sorry the picture is so small- having problems pulling it off my phone for some reason. I have attached them both to this post as well.

I believe that bluegills and all the sunfishes are lumped into one catagory.....just as there is only one catagory for crappie and not (White crappie and Black Crappie listings)If you find out something other than what I believe to be true....Please post your results.....to also help keep me informed.....So for now, good luck in a quest for that Fish Ohio Pin......jON sR. PS.Why not be rewarded for the "BIGGEST ONE OF THOSE TO COME OUT OF O'SHAUNASEE." as you say.
