Bluegills were the target on this small 40 acre lake in Tama County. It is rather deep, up to 20+ feet in several areas. I knew the bluegills had to be close to ending the spawning routine, so I had a hunch they would be out deeper...enter the summer edition of the Vexilar. Many anglers put their Vexilars away once the ice melts, and every year I tell them that it is a mistake. I have installed the FL-10 on the bow of my boat, it is always there and ready to show me the fish. Installing this was very easy, as it is a flush mounting system and the FL-10 package comes with everything you need to install it on your boat.
Cruising throughout the lake I saw the familiar red lines on the Vexilar and I knew exactly what we needed to do. Suspending bluegills on slip bobbers is pretty fun, and my kids had a blast. Most of the fish we caught were in about 10-12 feet of water, and the gills were hanging around the 6 foot mark. It became as simple as; find suspending fish, drop the Talons, and cast the slip bobbers. We had a great time catching bluegills and the occasional largemouth bass too.Another great trip with the kids, thanks to the Vexilar FL-10.
