evilcatfish Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 Can't go wrong with Nichols, Pepper, or Revenge. All 3 come in nice gill patterns and feature quality components. If you go Nichols, I'd consider buying direct as they will gladly build any of their baits in whatever color configuration you like, nice folks too 1 Quote
Super User MIbassyaker Posted September 17, 2018 Super User Posted September 17, 2018 I can vouch for Revenge, Pepper and Siebert -- I have all three in bluegill patterns, all nice. I also like the Siebert "Pumpkinseed" pattern. Quote
Super User WRB Posted September 17, 2018 Super User Posted September 17, 2018 Nichols Hoosier style with double Indiana blue hologram blades and charteuse/blue shirt. Tom Quote
Super User Catt Posted September 17, 2018 Super User Posted September 17, 2018 White, Chartreuse-n-White or any combination thereof ? 2 Quote
5by3 Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 My favorite bluegill spinnerbait is the white/chartreuse skirt! 1 Quote
RickD Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 When they are feeding on bluegill my favorite spinner bait is a bluegill Swim Jig with a green pumpkin trailer. Quote

Beetlebz Posted September 18, 2018 Posted September 18, 2018 @Catt and @5by3 might be on to something. I gave up fighting it... I've thrown all types colors and configurations of spinner baits, never caught a bass on a full size one. Ever. My last MTB came with a white and chartreuse dobyns spinner bait... I just caught my first 3 ever spinnerbait bass. Doesn't look like anything I've ever seen in the water there, we have no shad, but it worked. I've thrown dark spinnerbaits before trying to match my gills, maybe I'll try again with an actual green one. Either way, the white chartreuse got it done today. Quote
Super User WRB Posted September 18, 2018 Super User Posted September 18, 2018 The only time period I use a "blue gill" color spinninerbait is post spawn and the reason double Indiana blades is to slow it down and run it a little deeper. Agree a white/chartreuse spinnerbait works year around. Tom Quote
DINK WHISPERER Posted September 18, 2018 Posted September 18, 2018 Another vote for the revenge variants. Great quality baits. Quote
Super User Munkin Posted September 19, 2018 Super User Posted September 19, 2018 The advantage of making your own baits is you make whatever you want. Since Tom gave up the secret I do best on this bait with double Indiana blades as well. Allen 1 Quote
Black Hawk Basser Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 I only use white/red or black/red, and one of the two will work most days they are on that kind of bite. Quote
