Song

BLUEGILL Bright

Teach your grandchildren to fish using this copyright song courtesy of Dr. Thomas E. Nunnally, Auburn University. Sing it to the tune of the verse part only of "Old Dan Tucker."

Bluegill, bluegill, colors so bright,
Little sunfish full of big fish fight.
I make my cast and await your bite
And set the hook when the line goes tight.

I reel while you rush to the left and right
Then pull you up from the lake to the light.
Your yellows and blues are a beautiful sight,
Bluegill, bluegill, colors so bright!
