Rodney fisherman having early spring fishing success - The Pioneer

BIG RAPIDS - Jeff Greene has been an active fisherman in recent days.

"I fished at Haymarsh Lake Monday in the shallow water on the south end," he said. "I fished Tuesday in the shallow water on Hillview Lake and caught bluegills and sunfish on both days using worms."

A Rodney area resident, Greene also is an avid baseball umpire.

He's an avid ice fisherman, but when spring comes around, he's more than ready to do some bluegill fishing.

"I go out as soon as I can start catching bluegills," Greene said. "Usually it's the second week of April, sometimes as early as the first week of April. I always start at Haymarsh Lake. I start on the south end where the water is really shallow and it's mucky, so it's black and it warms up the fastest.

"The bluegills are in there in kind of schools or pods. You catch a couple of fish and they become spooky and swim out and then you have to go a little farther and catch a couple more."

From mid-May to mid-June, bluegills tend to be on their beds. Generally speaking, this is when the bluegills tend to be easier to catch.

"Sometimes, like last year, when I had really good fishing for four or five days, then they weren't on their beds anymore," Greene said. "They went into a little deeper water. They're still easy to catch. But they don't stay there on the beds for three or four weeks."

Bluegills is an extremely popular fish for anglers like Greene to pursue.

"Perch are really seasonable, you can catch them in the spring and fall but not too many in the summer. For walleye, you have to work hard for them. With bluegills, they're just about in any lake in Michigan. They're easy to catch and they're darn good tasting."
