Just About Everything Except For A Bass

Went out for a couple hours this afternoon.  Like the title says, I tried fishing for bass but caught just about everything else.  First catch was this pickerel.  He flopped out of my grip and buried 2 trebles into my shorts.  Could have been a bad situation if it had been about 8 inches lower.

Then walked around the other side of the lake and caught a couple more picks.

After that we walked down to the creek below the spillway.  Caught yet another really small pickerel that I didn't take a picture of then I caught a rainbow trout.

Also caught this guy.  When I caught it I thought it looked darker so I thought bluegill but now that I look at the pic, I dunno.  If not a bluegill, its in the same family.  Positive ID anyone?

Before leaving I decided to hit the main lake again.  Fan casted a few times, figured I'd call it a day and then on the infamous 'one last cast', I caught a yellow perch.

Felt bad for the wife though.  All she got was 1 pickerel and it threw the hook right at the bank.  All the pickerel came on a KVD 1.5 or 3/16 oz. SK spinnerbait.  Got the trout and bluegill on a small white inline spinner and I got the perch on a SK 3/8 oz. spinnerbait.  I know the fish weren't huge but it was a fun day.  Plus the it was my first yellow perch.

Multispecies days are always fun, unless it's a tournament. Your second to last picture is a male bluegill, looks like he has his best dress on for the big dance :)
