Fall Lures
#1
Bobby Garland Baby Shad 1.5 inch
Color: Chartreuse Pepper · Size: 1.5 inch
Cast tight to dock pilings and shake vertically with micro-movements; let it fall on slack line between shakes to trigger strikes from suspended bluegill holding in dock shade.
Clear water and bright sun drive bluegill deep into dock shade; shaky head finesse with natural minnow profile and chartreuse accent matches fall forage and works dock structure where bluegill suspend mid-depth.
#2
Beetle Spin 1/32 oz
Color: Black · Size: 1/32 oz
Cast around dock posts and retrieve with a slow, steady roll just below the surface; the blade flash and vibration will draw aggressive strikes from bluegill in the shallower dock shadow zone.
Falling barometric pressure triggers aggressive feeding; Beetle Spin's compact profile and blade vibration excel at dock pilings where bluegill hunt in the upper water column during afternoon heat.
#3
Rooster Tail #0 1/16 oz
Color: Silver · Size: 1/16 oz
Cast beyond dock structure and retrieve with a slow, steady roll through the deeper shadow zone; pause occasionally to let it flutter and drop near pilings where bluegill hold in cooler water.
Falling pressure and 83°F water push bluegill deeper into dock structure; Rooster Tail's small profile and silver blade mimic fall baitfish and work the mid-depth zone where dock-holding bluegill suspend during bright afternoon conditions.
