    Reelfoot Lake Bream

    I'm hearing some awesome reports of people hammering the bream. Wax worms on jig and crappie nibbles. I will talk to some people next week and try and get some more info if anyone is interested.

    I do an annual Bluegill fishing trip to Reelfoot in late May or early June each year. The Bluegill are typically on beds at that time and I have hammered them every time I've been. It's an awesome Bluegill Lake if you know how to find the beds.

    Humminbird Mega Live and Mega 360 are a killer combination for finding and fishing the beds. Here is a short Mega Live & Mega 360 Bluegill Beds video comparison YouTube video I did after my trip to Reelfoot last year. This was in 4 1/2 ft. of water.

    Love my Annual trip to Reelfoot. Will be there on the 26th. From what i am hearing and reading lately the Crappie spawn and Bluegills mooving shallow are both happening now so should be really good fishing if the weather cooperates!
