Summer Lures
#1
Beetle Spin
Color: Chartreuse/Black · Size: 1/16 oz
Cast toward weed edges and riprap, retrieve steadily with occasional pauses. The vibration cuts through stained water and attracts bluegill in shallow cover during midday.
Stained water demands bright, vibrating baits; rising pressure and high pressure favor smaller, finesse presentations; chartreuse visibility is critical in reduced clarity.
#2
Rooster Tail
Color: Chartreuse · Size: #0
Cast near riprap and weed pockets, retrieve slowly with twitches to trigger reaction bites. Let it flutter on pauses near structure.
Tiny #0 size matches bluegill preference; chartreuse excels in stained water; rising pressure and high pressure require downsized, subtle presentations.
#3
Small Tube Jig
Color: Chartreuse/White · Size: 1/32 oz, 1.25 inch
Pitch into weed gaps and along riprap, use a slow lift-and-drop cadence. Maintain contact with bottom structure where bluegill hold in midday heat.
Tube jigs are bluegill-specific finesse lures; 1/32 oz matches tiny-lure requirement; stained water and high pressure demand bright colors and vertical presentations near cover.
