I think I have posted this picture before. Have been able to find some rather large bluegills over the last few years here in AL. But never really measured them. Too large to hold with one hand and the ear flaps were larger than my thumb nails. Put rod and quarter beside fish just to show size. Can say that after about 50 of these all day they begin to look normal. Trying to find the photo of a 14 1/4 inch shellcracker we caught last summer.
