Can you see the parasites on the bluegill, or do they have them inside of them, and when the bass eat them they get it inside of the bass?
Yes. Feeding live fish will always carry the risk of carrying internal parisites.

You can treat feeders before feeding your fish. This should help kill parasites, but you can never be 100 percent sure.

Be careful about the spines on the bluegill...u dont want the bass to get one stuck in its throat
