redear in rough river?

[kycoolj32]

I was wondering if there are any redear in rough river. Just got back from barkley and catching some nice shellcrackers. I'm heading to rough next weekend for hybrids but I was hoping I could get on some decent bluegills and maybe redear if there are any in there also. any info will be appreciated. thanks in advance.

Its full of red ear . I have never tried to fish for bigger ones but i have caught 3 inch fish. For what its worth My biggest bluegill out of rough is 9 1/2 " long so if the gills get pretty big i guess the ears can too.

Sounds good about the bluegill. Have you been fishing for them at rough lately? I'm gonna take my 9 year old nephew out on the boat with me at rough this coming weekend and try to get a few good gills. I figured it would be hard to find any redear there. thanks

I doubt fishing will be good at Rough. With it being Memorial Day w/end and there pulling it about 9 inches a day. Also I didn't think there was Redear in RR??
