Man you hit the jackpot with that bunch. Oh, I do love Blue Gills, Shell Crackers, Warmouth perch, Specks, and little yellow belly Catfish! Man, those are nice ones. Yep, just scale, and cut the heads off, and clean out the innards, and a little homemade batter, and whoowee, they are good! I like to cook in Coconut oil, but it all tastes great! So did you get any Rain? Didn't rain at all over here. Was supposed to, but nice clear skies all day. Did You take your Grand son with you? Or do you want to keep your little honey hole a secret?
I bet he would have had a ball. Also you can use those little Japanese beetles that get around the door light at night. When I was a kid, I would get a mayonnaise jar, and fill it up pretty well with those, and the bream loved them. Most of the time I would just worms like you did, but occasionally I would use those beetles. My cousin used to buy crickets, till I showed him the results with the beetles.
Man, those sure look good ! Especially with some of those collards, and some hush puppies! Darn!, Now I have to hit the refrigerator!
