I was cleaning out an old folder on my desktop and I came across this picture of a bluegill that I caught on while fly fishing a small farm pond around this time last year (I need to clean out my folders more often than once a year);

The size of the opercular flap on that male is INSANE. Thanks for sharing.

beautiful fish! That's why I have 2 blugills in my 75 gallon. They look so cool when they get older. Mine aren't that old or big yet.
