alternatives to mattlures ultimate bluegill

Post by timsford » Sun Jun 22, 2014 2:34 pm

Anyone have experience with other bluegill swimbaits? Ive been catching a lot of hawgs in my local ponds on the mattlures gill Baird but im starting to think the fish are becoming lure shy ive caught so many. Are there any other swimbaits anyone reccomends

It depends on whether you want a single hook. The 3:16 Sunfish is great for slow-rolling, but it has a treble hook and it is not great around heavy grass. Jerry Rago, Little Creeper, and Storm all make a single hooked bluegill baits that can be fished in the grass. Look on Tackle Warehouse under "soft bodied swimbaits".
