5 Best Bluegill Lures! These Plastics Will Catch Those Panfish!

Very informative video, going over the baits you use as well as the techniques. Thank you for sharing your experience!

Adam, from Kayak Catfish, shows how effective the 1" Gulp minnow, in smelt color, can be for just about everything, especially panfish.

I'd highly recommend the Rebel Crickhoppers. They're a little more pricey so it's aggravating when you snag one but I've caught bass, crappie, and bluegill on them a TON.

Im big into panfish now after fishing for over 50 years for big bass and big cats crappie are my favorite now and bluegill shell crackers as we call them in Florida are great fish to catch and great eating too.

I love the bison color for panfish/crappie magnets (black and brown/tan) it’s caught me a ton of panfish in both clear and muddy water. I also like using them (panfish/crappie magnets) on a beetle spin I get more bites using them than with the grub that comes with the beetle spin

Recently found your channel after taking up fishing. As a beginner your videos have been a godsend.

Another great video! Water here in South Texas area starting to dry up. Going to Louisiana in a few days. Can’t wait. Calcasieu River is up right now lots of rain. Fish on!

hey bud. if curios there are smaller plastics that you could match the hatch depending on year. mud bugs helgramites all by BY baits wors pretty well. gills and even trout

Right on!!! A year later and still useful! 😎

Going out tomorrow will try some of these!

Thank you for these videos. I have always loved fishing as a kid but pretty much only used a spoon for everything. Now that I'm a dad of a 3 year-old im trying to learn more to increase his chances of catching some of these little fish. So thank you again for all the advice!

I swear by 1/16oz beetle spins. You can't go wrong with a good white & red dot beetle spin when nothing else works. I've even caught smallmouth and northerns on them

Having fished multiple s in different sizes and colors, youtube.com/post/UgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZ… this is by far my favorite. One thing to be aware of is the sided willow blade. One side is silver and the other is the green/orange shown. This is not bad, just unconventional. In terms of fishing, I have found the lure works just fine without a tail like a craw or shad. That addition is up to you. Also, the hook part where you attach the swivel snap or tie the line is a problem on baits these days, since it's able to slide up and down. However this lure seems to be tight enough that that doesn't happen often, and you can solve it by putting a thin slice of medical tube over the hook before attaching the line. Like others have said, it's really magic on a good windy day.

Unfortunately, my favorite go-to panfish plastic is no longer made… the Yum 1 1/2” Woolly Curly Tail on a 1/16 oz. RoadRunner. Seemed to catch only the bigger (1/2 lb. or better) bluegills for some reason. Don’t know why they were discontinued.

Awesome thanks for the tips🤘
