Bluegill Imitations....

[TShaffer]

I have a small storm bluegill soft swimbait that kicks arse and I have a bluegill shallow shad rap that is good for avoiding snags on the bottom. Both have caught bass and look just like little bluegills in the water.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. Im sold on the Jackall Giron and the Mattlure. Do you guys know any tackle stores in orange county that carry them? I'd rather pick them up then pay for shipping and wait. Thanks for the help guys...

I got this one from Bass Pro and caught a 3 1/2 Lb a couple of weeks ago. This bait is slow sinking and comes with some ball bearings to increase the depth. It can also be fished like a wakebait. The Bluegill color is "02". I got the 4" bait. Also they are in stock at Rancho Cucamonga.

Angler's Marine on La Palma should have both. Be careful though, if you go
there, I can almost gurantee that's not the only thing you're gonna leave the
store with.

Damn i should of thought of that. I already ordered some though from tacklewarehouse. Got some flouro and two of the jackall lures. I cant wait to go back and hit up the local lakes with new ammo... Thanks for the help bro.

I have a Shimano Japan bluegill crank that dives 2-3 feet and is an absolute killer. Bought it from a guy on TT for $11. Bluegill swimbaitsI like are, as stated above, Mattlures for soft and Jackall Girons for hard. For around $20 a pop, they're not bad. Don't cheap out and buy the Storm crap because they are pieces of s***. 80% of them, out of the bag, are gonna swim on their sides.

kevins right those storm bluegill swimbaits ar crap... but the wildeye shad are killer

Yeah i did the same thing. I made sure I would get the free shipping so I spent 60. Picked up 2 Jackall Girons and some different brand flourocarbon to test out. I'll post results soon...

Hey I noticed you replaced the monster hook in the middle with a small one. Is there a reason for that? I also took the big hook off and put the one that was at the tail in the middle and added a smaller treble to the tail.
