Simple and spunky, fishing for summer bluegills never gets old

As summer approaches, I am taken back to my time as a youth, and to my son’s time when he was a kid to the simpler times of fishing. These types of outings are still very possible and should happen just as often.
A particular trip many years ago readily comes to mind. As we eased the boat into that tiny cove on a crowded lake, the children made their first casts. The bobber did not even have time to settle on the water’s surface before it plummeted downward. Within seconds, the first fish of the evening was on and my friend’s young son was grinning ear to ear.
