I catched me about 30 bloogals last saturdee..i started fishin bout 5pm tho..it widnt too bad atall.. but that dusky time bank fishin is the wayy to go in this heat😀 How deep where they? I love them bluegills. Bout a foot on tha bed...theyll pop up bed on and off all summer..but the bed sizes are usually smaller with less fish. You can find shellcrackers on the bed this time of year better than earlier in the year...you gottah look forem tho this time of year...anwhere from 1ft off the bank to probly a 100ft..want be more than 3-4ft and might not be there but a few days and they will move around sometimes but not far usually...they usually eat better this time of year also and best to fishem when the sun is good and high and theyll hammer a criket,worm,or keystone minner as soon as it hits the water...also if you find one bed theys probly a few more within a 100 yards of you😃

I’ve been doing pretty well on the bass in this heat.

I been itching to go too, but if I do, it will be at night I went Friday night. Called it quits at 2am. Gar and drum were the only fish we caught. But with the full moon and cooler temps, it was nice just to sit and fish.

I do my best not to let summer time and summer heat keep me form fishing, I'm not a summer kind of person anymore though,,,since my heart attack it's dangerous for me if I can't get cooled off...I can hack it if there is a breeze blowing but let it be one of those no wind kind of hot summer days, I'll look for a spot that you can see has some wind on it... if I have my cool off kit ( Ice chest filled with ice and a med sized bath towel) I can dip the towel into the ice water throw the towel over my head and it keeps me fishing. If I didn't bring my cool off kit I can't hardly make it unless I can find a shady bank to get on....many times taking a quick boat ride can cool me off,, so I'll do some gunning and running,,,, It doesn't matter if the bass are biting good or not just being out there is what's important to me... If I'm going to kick the bucket any time soon I'd rather be doing something I love than to be sitting back at the house waiting for it...

I heard once you get too hot, it ruins your body to where your more easily overheated even years down the road. I dont know for certain. I hear in army one has to wear red ribbon on sleave for medics.

I hear in army one has to wear red ribbon on sleave for medics. In my early 20's , I was carted off the 17th green from heat stroke. 40 years later the heat still effects me. That's why it takes me over 4 hours to do lawn work in August.

I’ve got him convinced that fishing in the heat is no bueno. 😁 It really opened my eyes to how effective night fishing is. I've caught some big fish and won a bunch of money over the last few months

Do y’all not jump in the water and cool off? Heck we do. Um, no.
