Which bluegill swimbait

[Smells like fish]

Which bluegill swimbait gets the nod as a fish catcher under $30?

 

I am currently looking at the 5" and 8" Jackall and a 4" Fish Lab  hard gill

 

What else should I be looking at? Thanks

Agree on the G2 Shellcracker. He isn’t going to get a bull gill for 30 bucks.

I’ve done very well with the savage gear 3D bluegill and I believe they are $10-$20 depending on size

Any love for the Jackall?

 

Lots of good suggestions I'll take those names to YouTube and do some research 

 

The Mattlures bluegill hook angle looks interesting, but thats a novice speaking 

 

My wife has just recently got use to lures costing $20-30, I don't want to see her reaction to a $60 YET!!!

This little guy from Dream Smasher is my fav. With it's flat bottom it sits upright so you can fish it like a jig but with the great tail design, you can swim it too. My best results are a combo - swim it along the bottom & then stop. It will nose down like a Gill feeding. And if you happen to pitch it on a bed...

Fishlab Bio Gill Wake 5" is a SWEET little bait for not much money. The glide and jointed versions they have are nice too. I prefer the 5" versions all around.

 

Savage Gear has their new Pulse Tail bluegills with a jig hook and weedless version. I've got both and they're awesome little baits for $10 and $12.

The Jackall Ganteral jr. Is a good bait I’ve caught some good fish on them. I like the ghost gill.

Shellcracker and Matt lures get my vote.
