Siebert Outdoors Bluegill pattern/ Rage Tail Shell Cracker (hard candy). Let the bait settle to the bottom and then slow retrieve. The bait creates all of the action, you do nothing but reel.

A swim jig and the rain is a deadly combination, I would use either white, black and blue or a blue gill type color and have a few different size matching trailers.

For me, green pumpkin is the only color I throw as most places I fish have bluegill as the primary forage. 7/16 has been my top producing size for a while.

I like to cast out a swim Jig, and try to bang it into weeds, timber or whatever, similar to a square bill, I rarely fish it slowly on the bottom, I use it like a spinnerbait/Rattle trap, Seibert Bullet swim jigs are awesome as you can let them fall into pockets of weeds, but the key is a good soft weedguard and good hook...

If you can't order from Siebert, Strike King makes a few good ones...plus you can swim an Arkie Jig as well, I find I only use 1/4-3/8, I like to swim a Rage bug or Menace on a weighted hook near the bottom, but you can't go wrong with all the above suggestions....

The Strike King Hack Attack Swim Jig is a really good over the counter Jig in all colors, they only carry 3-4 in the colors mentioned and I find White, Bluegill, black and blue, and Blue Magic all I really need....Just have a baitfish trailer and a craw style trailer ready to go...

Swim Jigs have accounted for probably a third of my bass this year, bluegill color, swam along the outside edges of weed beds from shore.
