Bluegills, a small panfish found in freshwater lakes and streams and some rivers, are a popular game fish among anglers due to their feisty nature and excellent taste. During the spawning season, usually in late May through August, bluegill females produce eggs. The best chance for catching a bluegill with eggs is during the peak of the spawning season when water temperatures are between 67 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit.
