I have no idea why they call it a bluegill rod. It is a 6-7wt rod, and seems too heavy for bluegill. One of the jokes around the club is that we want to find the bluegills that are supposed to match up with this rod. They would have to average about 2 pounds!!

Yep, I bought this for my local smallmouth stream (1-3lb) and thought it would be perfect for this application. I will be tossing decent sized poppers, clousers, etc. I have an old Sage 379-3 LL for my bluegill rod.
