Just got my Basstrix Bait Fry Bluegills from tackle warehouse. Heres what it looks like if your not familar. http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Basstrix_Bait_Fry_Bluegills/descpage-BTB.html

I am trying to figure out the best way to rig it up. Check out the video on the tackle warehouse link. It seems they used a basic lead head jig with the hook exposed through the back. I will try that out but i was wondering if there is a weedless way to rig it and still get the same action.

If any one has had any experience with this bait any input will be appreciated.

Bluegills are spawning right now at my lake, hoping to see if this works

THAT IS A HARD BAIT TO GET WEEDLESS. IT IS MOSTLY A DROP SHOT BAIT. BUT I WOULD TRY THIS.

Try A Lucky Craft Kelly J Prop Bait In A Bluegill Pattern, That Bait Has Done Me Well.

thanks for the reply. Yea it seems a little tough to get this bait to go weedless. Dean Rojas used it earlier this year in a tourny and it seemed like he had it weedless thats why i was asking. That prop bait looks pretty sweet wish i would have picked it up for memorial day
